Momodou L Jammeh et al. Semin Intervent Radiol. .

Abstract

Ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm are a critical vascular emergency. A coordinated, multidisciplinary management pathway can aid in timely diagnosis, triage, and coordination of best care. We present our institutional care algorithm for rAAA with an accompanying case example.

Keywords: EVAR; multidisciplinary management; rAAA; ruptured AAA.
