Abstract:: OBJECTIVE: In many vascular centers an endovascular first policy for the treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) has resulted in endovascular aortic repair (EVAR) outnumbering open aortic repair (OAR). The declining routine in OAR raises the question whether this might influence procedural outcomes and diminish surgical expertise for current and future vascular surgeons. We aimed to analyze OAR outcomes, AAA morphology and procedural details over the past 15 years while an endovascular first approach was successively implemented. PARTICICPANTS AND DESIGN: All patients operated for (i)ntact infra-/juxtarenal AAA between January 1, 2005 and December 31, 2019 were identified. Outcome parameters were length of stay (hospital/ICU), in-hospital mortality and medical/surgical complications. Operative details were clamping zone, access and graft configuration. AAA anatomy including neck and iliac parameters was analyzed with Endosize©. Logistic regression, uni- and multivariate analysis were applied. RESULTS: 293 patients received elective OAR for iAAA. Baseline characteristics (age, sex, hypertension, smoking, occlusive disease, coronary disease, hyperlipidemia, diabetes, renal insufficiency and obesity) did not change over time. The number of OAR dropped significantly (-0.5 cases/year p = 0.02). The procedure time (2005-2007: 192.2 ± 87.5min to 2017-2019: 235.6 ± 88.2min; p = 0.0001) and the length of stay (2005-2007: 12.0 ± 7.9 to 2017-2019: 17.0 ± 23.1; p = 0.03) increased significantly, whereas the in-hospital mortality, length of ICU stay and complication rates didn't, nor did AAA anatomy. Upon multivariate analysis, annual number of OAR and any additional anastomosis significantly influenced procedure time, trainee involvement, for example, did not. Hospital length-of-stay depended on patient age (p = 0.002), complication rates (p < 0.0001) and procedure time (p = 0.006). CONCLUSION: Mortality and complication rates for OAR have remained low and constant. With the increase of EVAR, the absolute number of OARs has decreased significantly. However, the total procedure time has increased and depends significantly on the annual number of OARs in total and per surgeon. This might influence outcome parameters and should be implanted in future surgical education.
