Supports elective EVAR in suitable AAA; observational data leaves open generalizability and need for RCTs.
Cohort (n=247)
Absolute Event Rate: 2.5% vs 36.4%
Endovascular aneurysm repair for AAA demonstrates relatively low short-term mortality and complication rates in planned cases, though outcomes are significantly worse in emergency ruptured cases.
Kulig et al. (2018) conducted a cohort in Abdominal aortic aneurysm (n=247). Endovascular aneurysm repair (planned) vs. Endovascular aneurysm repair (ruptured) was evaluated on Short-term mortality (up to 30 days). Endovascular aneurysm repair for abdominal aortic aneurysm demonstrated a 30-day mortality rate of 2.5% in planned cases compared to 36.4% in ruptured cases.
