Results: The cumulative rates of freedom from AAA enlargement at 54 months after EVAR (maximum observational period in the PELI group) were as follows: control group, 77.5%; IMA group, 62.5%; and PELI group, 100%. The mean CT follow-up periods of the control, IMA, and PELI groups were 46.4 ± 22.3, 31.1 ± 20.6, and 22.9 ± 15.5 months, respectively. None of the 31 patients in the PELI group experienced AAA enlargement after EVAR, whereas 2 out of the 16 patients in the IMA group and 20 out of the 98 patients in the control group had AAA enlargement. No significant differences were observed in the rate of freedom from AAA enlargement (PELI group vs. IMA group, P = 0.11; PELI group vs. control group, P = 0.11). The prevalence of T2EL was significantly lower in the PELI group than in the control group at 6 months (13.6% in PELI group vs. 42.1% in control group, P = 0.02) and 1 year (14.3% in PELI group vs. 40.0% in control group, P = 0.04).
