    Abstract : Colonic ischaemia (CI), Intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH) and abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) are devastating complications after abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) surgery. The aims of this thesis were to study the incidence and clinical consequences of IAH/ACS and the association between CI and intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) among patients undergoing OR for ruptured AAA (rAAA), to compare extraluminal pHi monitoring, with standard intra-luminal monitoring among patients operated on for AAA, and to study the frequency and clinical consequences of IAH/ACS after endovascular repair (EVAR) for rAAA.

    Abstract : With the introduction of screening programmes for abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) more individuals are being identified with a subaneurymal aorta (SAA; diameter 25-29mm). More recent data indicate that these aortas may not be as harmless as previously thought, but there is, however, no general agreement on how SAA should be managed. READ MORE
