Chronic renal insufficiency and risk of early mortality in patients undergoing carotid endarterectomy.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Controversy exists about technique of repair for ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms (rAAA). We studied rAAA treated at a single tertiary center from 2005 to 2015 to determine operative morbidity and mortality in open and endovascular aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR) of rAAA. METHODS:All rAAA (n = 144) treated...
