Among the causes of mortality observed in the elderly population between 65 years and 80 years, the specific mortality rate related to AAA has been rising for several years. The interest of screening programs has been demonstrated and elective surgery is likely to reduce the incidence of rupture in at risk patients. This prospective study will allow us to know the prevalence of AAA in our country. A screening program will be set up with general practitioners and elective surgery will be proposed according to the diameter of the aorta. Cost-effectiveness of this program will be assessed. Improvement of life expectancy will be measured.
在65岁至80岁老年人群中观察到的死亡原因中，与腹主动脉瘤（AAA）相关的特定死亡率多年来一直在上升。筛查项目的益处已得到证实，选择性手术可能会降低高危患者的破裂发生率。这项前瞻性研究将使我们了解我国腹主动脉瘤的患病率。将与全科医生共同建立一个筛查项目，并根据主动脉直径建议进行选择性手术。将评估该项目的成本效益。将衡量预期寿命的改善情况。
