Summary: | OBJECTIVE: To analyze the prognostic factors related to the mortality of ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm. METHOD: Seventy-two patients who suffered ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm and were operated in the period between 1976 and 2000 by the Vascular Surgery Unit of the Santa Casa de São Paulo - School of Medical Sciences were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS: The descriptive analysis of the data shows a mean age of 67.93 years, with a standard deviation of 11.58, 32% female and 68% male. Of the total number, 28% had a previous history of aneurysm and 72% were not aware of the disease. Mean systolic blood pressure during hospital admission was 96.53 mmHg. Pain was present in 100% of the patients, as well as throbbing abdominal mass. In 93% of the cases the location of the aneurysm rupture was the retroperitoneum, 4% in the duodenum, and 2% in the free peritoneum. CONCLUSION: The prognostic factors related to mortality and morbidity that demonstrated statistical significance were: age, initial blood pressure at hospital admission, diuresis during surgery, volume infused, and creatinine levels.OBJETIVO: Analisar fatores prognósticos relacionados com a letalidade dos doentes com aneurisma de aorta abdominal roto. MÉTODO: Foram analisados, retrospectivamente, 72 doentes portadores de aneurisma de aorta abdominal roto, operados no período de 1976 a 2000 pela disciplina de Cirurgia Vascular da Santa Casa de São Paulo. RESULTADOS: A análise descritiva dos dados mostra média de idade de 67,93 anos, com desvio padrão de 11,58 anos, sendo 32% do sexo feminino e 68% do sexo masculino. Do total, 28% tinham história prévia de aneurisma e 72% desconheciam a doença. A pressão arterial sistólica na admissão foi de 96,53 mmHg. A dor esteve presente em 100% dos doentes, assim como massa abdominal pulsátil. O local de rompimento do aneurisma foi em 93% dos casos para o retroperitônio, 4% para o duodeno e 2% para peritônio livre. CONCLUSÃO: Os fatores prognósticos relacionados à letalidade que se mostraram com significância estatística foram: idade, pressão arterial admissional, diurese intra-operatória, volume infundido e creatinina admissional. |
