Key result
Endovascular repair of ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms has not definitively demonstrated significant long-term mortality differences compared to open surgery, though it may offer better 30-day postoperative outcomes.
Why the study?
Does endovascular surgery technique improve survival compared to open surgery technique in patients with ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm?
Does endovascular surgery technique improve survival compared to open surgery technique in patients with ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm?
This review compares endovascular and open surgical techniques for the emergency management of ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms to determine which approach offers greater survival benefit.
Evidence on open versus endovascular rAAA repair remains inconclusive; leaves open optimal approach pending randomized trials.
The abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) can present a serious complication, which is rupture, which is associated with a high mortality rate. As a result, the early surgery of ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm can provide greater survival for these patients. However, there are two methods to do this fix. This article makes a bibliographical revision, in order to compare the procedures used in this emergency surgery (open and endovascular surgery technique), with the purpose of defining which approach offers greater benefit.

Oliveira et al. (2016) conducted a review in Ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) vs. Open surgical repair was evaluated on Mortality. Endovascular repair of ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms has not definitively demonstrated significant long-term mortality differences compared to open surgery, though it may offer better 30-day postoperative outcomes.
