Intraoperative predictors of in-hospital mortality after open repair of ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms

CONCLUSIONS: Operation time >240 minutes, and hemoperitoneum affected in-hospital mortality in patients undergoing OSR for rAAA. Patency of at least one hypogastric artery, and infrarenal clamping had a protective role. Further studies are needed to validate these outcomes. A validated predictive model could be useful to help the physicians in communication with patients' relatives.PMID:37377396 | DOI:10.23736/S0392-9590.23.04941-6
