Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To assess the effects of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) on stainless-steel Z-stent-based abdominal aortic prostheses. METHODS:From June 1996 to December 2005, 550 patients underwent endovascular repair of an infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm at a single academic institution by using a stainless-steel Z-stent-based abdominal aortic prosthesis. Routine patient follow-up included computed tomography scans and abdominal plain films at 1, 6, and 12 months after surgery and yearly thereafter. Although patients were specifically instructed not to undergo MRI, retrospective review identified 22 patients (4%) who underwent MRI after stent-graft implantation. RESULTS:Seventeen of 22 patients consented to have their records reviewed as part of this study and underwent MRI at a mean interval of 669 days (range, 3-2179 days) after stent-graft implantation. Eleven patients underwent implantation of Zenith bifurcated stent grafts, and six had custom-made uni-iliac stent grafts. These patients underwent a total of 20 MRI studies-10 of the brain/neck and 10 of the abdomen, pelvis, or spine. In all cases, the magnetic field strength was 1.5 T or less. No patient experienced any symptoms of abdominal or back pain during or after the MRI. Comparison of the pre- and post-MRI computed tomography scans (available in 15 of 17 patients) and abdominal radiographs showed no change in stent-graft structure, position, or function in any of these patients and no increase in abdominal aortic aneurysm diameter in any patient at an average of 899 days after MRI. CONCLUSIONS:On the basis of this limited experience, MRI has no discernible effect on the structure, position, or function of stainless-steel Z-stent-based abdominal aortic prostheses.
