Abstract:Background Anemia is a highly prevalent condition potentially linked to chronic inflammation. Preoperative anemia is an independent risk factor across many surgical fields. However, the relationship between anemia and abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repair outcomes remains unclear. This study aimed to examine the effects of preoperative anemia on 30-day outcomes of non-ruptured infrarenal AAA repair. Methods Patients who underwent open surgical repair (OSR) and endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) for infrarena… Show more
