Abdominal aortic aneurysms: some controversial points.
1983
A retrospective review of the surgical treatment of 51 abdominal aortic aneurysms is reported. Thirty-five (69%) patients were operated on electively, and 16 (31%) had emergency surgery. Fissurated aneurysms were included in the elective surgery group. The operative death rate was respectively 2.7% and 50%. Controversial points about diagnosis, treatment of associated diseases, surgical technique, and selection of the patients for surgery are presented and discussed.
