Giant abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) are defined as AAAs >10 to 13 cm in the maximum transverse diameter. We have described a case of a patient who had presented for open repair of an 18-cm AAA and a review of reported cases of giant AAAs >10 cm in the maximum transverse diameter. Forty cases were compiled. The average maximum AAA diameter was 14.5 ± 4.1 cm. The AAA was ruptured on presentation in 12 patients (30%). Of the 40 cases, 34 (85%) were repaired with open surgery. The reported mortality was 15%. Despite the case complexity, five endovascular repairs were attempted.
巨大腹主动脉瘤(AAA)定义为最大横径大于10至13厘米的腹主动脉瘤。我们描述了一例前来接受18厘米腹主动脉瘤开放修复手术的患者病例,并回顾了已报道的最大横径大于10厘米的巨大腹主动脉瘤病例。共收集了40例病例。腹主动脉瘤平均最大直径为14.5±4.1厘米。12例患者(30%)就诊时腹主动脉瘤已破裂。在这40例病例中,34例(85%)接受了开放手术修复。报道的死亡率为15%。尽管病例复杂,但仍尝试了5例血管腔内修复术。
