Open Treatment of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm in the Endovascular Era

The aim of the study was to analyse outcomes and determine the early and late complications in patients after open surgical treatment of AAA in the endovascular era. Two hundred and fourteen patients between January 2012 and December 2021 with open repair in primary infrarenal and juxtarena aneurysm...

The aim of the study was to analyse outcomes and determine the early and late complications in patients after open surgical treatment of AAA in the endovascular era. Two hundred and fourteen patients between January 2012 and December 2021 with open repair in primary infrarenal and juxtarena aneurysm in elective setting were included in the study. Pre-, intra-, and postoperative clinical data were statistically analysed. The mean age of the 214 patients was 65.5 ± 9.3 years. The mean follow-up was 22.1 ± 2.1 months. Men represented the majority of the studied group (85.5%). The mean aortic diameter was 58.2 ± 13.4. The median ICU (days) stay was 5 ± 4.9 days for infrarenal aneurysm and 6 ± 6.1 days for juxtarenal aneurysm. Four patients died within 30 days, giving an in-hospital mortality rate of 1.9%. In multivariate logistic regression, COPD (p = 0.015) was the only predictor significantly associated with the mortality. A comparison of survival and reintervention using a Kaplan–Meier curve showed no significant difference between the groups in terms of risk stratification and the groups with juxtarenal versus infrarenal aneurysms. In conclusion, open aneurysm repair is in the era of endovascular aneurysm repair, being safe and effective, especially when performed in specialised high-volume centres with large expertise.
