Between 1986 and 1992, 133 patients with abdominal aneurysms presented to our Department of Vascular Surgery. Of these, 97 (73%) were elective cases and 36 (27%) had ruptured. In all these patients resections were undertaken. Postoperative complications occurred in 28 patients (28%) for elective resection and in 17 patients (47%) for ruptured aneurysms (p < 0.05), with mortality rates of 46 and 94%, respectively (p < 0.005). The postoperative mortality for elective resection was 13% and for rupture 44% (p < 0.001).
