Ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms
Abstract The results of operation in 76 patients with a ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm are presented with an analysis of the cause of operative death. Overall mortality was 58 per cent and preoperative hypotension significantly increased mortality; deterioration while awaiting operation made a successful outcome particularly unlikely.
