Resumen
El aumento de la frecuencia de los aneurismas de la aorta abdominal (AAA) y el uso aceptado del Endovascular Aneurysm Aortic Repair (EVAR) como tratamiento de primera línea, o como alternativa a la cirugía convencional, hace necesario conocer en profundidad los hallazgos pre y postratamiento. Los avances tecnológicos como la tomografía computarizada multidetector (TCMD), con su alta calidad de imagen, confieren al estudio angiografíco con TCMD (angio-TC) un papel fundamental en el estudio del AAA y su planificación terapéutica.
El objetivo de este artículo es revisar los AAA estudiados con angio-TC como técnica de imagen principal, para que los radiólogos sean capaces de detectar los signos relacionados con esta enfermedad, con el fin de diagnosticar, planificar el tratamiento y detectar las complicaciones en el postoperatorio.

Abstract
The increase in the frequency of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) and the widely accepted use of endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) as a first-line treatment or as an alternative to conventional surgery make it necessary for radiologists to have thorough knowledge of the pre- and post-treatment findings. The high image quality provided by multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) enables CT angiography to play a fundamental role in the study of AAA and in planning treatment.
The objective of this article is to review the cases of AAA in which CT angiography was the main imaging technique, so that radiologists will be able to detect the signs related to this disease, to diagnose it, to plan treatment, and to detect complications in the postoperative period.
