Dear Sergio,
 is it possible that your surface has a very low density (in terms of surface 
triangles)?
In this case you could try to subdivide the surface right after marching cubes:

vmtkmarchingcubes -ifile c:\\work\\batch\\ABD-Vascular-seg.mha -l 0.5 --pipe 
vmtksurfacesubdivision -method loop --pipe vmtksurfacesmoothing -passband 0.1 
-iterations 30 --pipe vmtksurfaceclipper --pipe vmtkcenterlines -seedselector 
openprofiles -ofile c:\\work\\batch\\ABD-Vascular.vtp

Let me know if this helps, if it doesn't please send the surface obtained from 
marching cubes (or a screenshot) and I'll take a look at it.

Best regards

Luca
