One-Year Outcomes after Ruptured Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms Repair: Is Endovascular Aortic Repair the Best Choice? A Single-Center Experience.

Background: Treatment of ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms (rAAAs) is still burdened by high morbidity and mortality. Although endovascular aortic repair (EVAR) offers encouraging results in elective setting, its role as first-line strategy to treat rAAA is still debated. Our aim was to compare early and late outcomes in patients undergoing open surgical repair (OSR) versus EVAR for rAAAs.
