  1. EVAR 2 30-day operative mortality: 7.3% with endovascular repair Rupture rate in the no repair group: 12.4/100 person-yrs All-cause death rate: 21.0/100 person-yrs with endovascular repair vs. 22.1/100 person-yrs with no repair Trial design: Patients with an abdominal aortic aneurysm ineligible for surgery were randomized to endovascular repair (n = 197) vs. medical management (n = 207). Median follow-up was 3.1 years. Results (p = 0.97) (p = 0.02) 22.1 21.0 per 100 person-years 7.3 Conclusions • In patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm, ineligible for open surgery repair, endovascular repair is associated with relatively high operative mortality • Aneurysm-related deaths reduced from endovascular repair; but no reduction in all-cause mortality 3.6 All-cause death rate Aneurysm-related death rate Endovascular repair No repair EVAR Trial Investigators.
