BACKGROUND: @entity1755 ( @entity1028 ) is relatively rare, and little has been written on the outcome of operative treatment. METHODS: @entity1 undergoing attempted repair of ruptured inflammatory @entity1028 between 1995 and 2001 were included in a retrospective case-cohort study. Demographic, clinical, and operative factors were analyzed, together with in-hospital morbidity, in-hospital mortality, and duration of postoperative hospital stay. RESULTS: Of 297 @entity1 who underwent attempted operative repair of @entity1755 , 24 (8%) had an inflammatory @entity439 . Twenty-two @entity1 were @entity1 , and two were @entity1 ; median age was 69 years (range, 51-85 years). Operative findings revealed a contained @entity1410 in 16 @entity1 (70%), free @entity397 in 3 @entity1 (13%), @entity292 in 4 @entity1 (17%), and aortoenteric @entity292 in 1 @entity1 (4%). Of 273 noninflammatory ruptured AAAs, only 2 @entity1028 (1%) were associated with primary @entity2333 . Ten @entity1 (42%) with inflammatory @entity1028 died in hospital, compared with 117 of 273 @entity1 (43%) without @entity32 . Median postoperative stay was 10 days (range, 0-35 days). Of the 14 @entity1 with inflammatory lesions who survived, 11 had @entity260 ; 4 @entity1 had @entity810 , three of whom required temporary renal replacement therapy. CONCLUSIONS: Ruptured inflammatory @entity1028 is associated with a higher incidence of @entity2333 than is ruptured noninflammatory @entity1028 . Repair of ruptured inflammatory @entity1028 is not associated with increased operative mortality compared with repair of ruptured noninflammatory @entity1028 .
