DOI: 10.1002/jcsm.12514
Abstract: Sarcopenia, the unintentional loss of skeletal muscle mass, is associated with poor outcomes in adult patient populations. In adults, sarcopenia is often ascertained by cross‐sectional imaging of the psoas muscle area (PMA). Although children with… read more here.

Risk of Psoas Muscle Atrophy After Endovascular Aneurysm Repair Assessed by Cross-Sectional Psoas Muscle Area
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "CardioVascular and Interventional Radiology"
DOI: 10.1007/s00270-020-02500-x
Abstract: Purpose We evaluated possible association of decreased psoas muscle area (PMA) after endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) by measuring the area of muscle in computed tomographic (CT) images. Materials and Methods We retrospectively reviewed CT images… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00276-020-02477-9
Abstract: The vermiform appendix is considered the most mobile organ in the human body. Due to its various positions in the abdomen and pelvis, it may result in confusion in diagnosis to the surgeons when it… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00384-017-2773-0
Abstract: PurposeSarcopenia is reported to be associated with complications after surgery. However, there is no established optimal parameter to determine sarcopenia affecting surgical outcome. This study investigated whether morphologic change of the psoas muscle (MPM) reflects… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.avsg.2018.08.096
Abstract: BACKGROUND Sarcopenia is associated with mortality after abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repair. The reliability of computed tomography (CT) core muscle areas and quality-that is, densities and their association with postoperative survival in patients undergoing AAA… read more here.

Does endovascular abdominal aortic repair change psoas muscle volume?
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Annals of vascular surgery"
DOI: 10.1016/j.avsg.2019.07.022
Abstract: BACKGROUND Because endovascular abdominal aortic repair (EVAR) lowers the lumbar arterial blood flow, we hypothesized that the volume of the psoas muscle decreases after surgery. When internal iliac artery (IIA) embolization is performed, the lumbar… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jocn.2019.05.024
Abstract: Morphometric analyses have shown that the psoas muscle mass is associated with mortality in cancer patients. Because of the low incidence of cervical spine metastasis, few studies have been reported in this population. The present… read more here.
