ABSTRACT
Surgical results in eight octogenarians who were operated upon for abdominal aortic aneurysms were compared to those of 42 patients under 80 years of age. Seven of eight octogenarians were operated on an emergency basis, and four of them were ruptured aneurysms. The size of the ruptured aneurysms was over 6cm in all cases of both groups. Postoperative complications occurred more frequently and postoperative mortality were significantly higher in octogenarians than in patients under 80. Early surgical intervention is recommended for elderly cases with large abdominal aortic aneurysms.
