ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To describe our surgical experience on rupture of abdominal aortic aneurysm.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Two cases of ruptured aortic aneurysms with severe complication were analysed. Aorta reconstruction procedures were performed using bifurcated e-PTFE grafts during emergency operation. Diagnosis, preoperative resuscitation, emergency surgical intervention, and postoperative complications of these patients were summarized and discussed.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Rupture of aortic aneurysm in both patients presented as a huge retroperitoneum haematoma by computed tomography scan. They were successfully saved by prompt body fluid compensation, emergency procedure, intraoperative resuscitation, and postoperative intensive care.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Correct diagnosis, prompt surgical management, immediate intraoperative proximal aorta clamping during procedure, and effective management of postoperative complications were the key points to successful treatment of ruptured aortic aneurysm.</p>
