Title of article - Is Endovascular Aneurysm Repair a Relative Contraindication for Patients with Preoperative Renal Dysfunction?
Abstract
Whether endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) for abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a relative contraindication in patients with preoperative renal dysfunction (Pre-RD), remains controversial because the contrast medium may induce nephrotoxicity. In this study 1658 patients were treated at ten Japanese medical centers between January 2005 and March 2011 (Open surgery (OS) vs. EVAR: n = 1270 vs. n = 388). They were retrospectively analyzed. Multiple logistic regression analysis (MLRA) with pre- and intra-operative variables was applied to all patients. The endpoints induced onset of new dialysis and postoperative renal dysfunction (Post-RD), were defined as a 50% decrease or more from the preoperative estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) level.
