          Abstract

          Ultrasound screening for abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) has been shown to decrease aneurysm related mortality. Likely by providing an opportunity to intervene while the aneurysm is still intact, but possibly also when and the anatomy still relatively uncomplicated which would provide a less complex procedure. Our aim was to retrospectively investigate the complexity of repair for screening-detected AAAs in a cohort of 65-year-old men.
