Ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm. Analysis of 50 procedures.
The authors report their experience in the management of 50 patients operated on for ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms. The importance of an early surgical indication will be discussed. A didactically written chart will be presented to simplify and allow early diagnosis. The results will be analysed as to onset of rupture, quantity of transfused blood and shock condition of the patient.
