In this chapter the essential aspects of anesthesia for abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repair are discussed. Subtopics include airway management in expanding aneurysm, hemodynamic therapy, monitoring, vasodilator therapy, and bleeding. The chapter is divided into preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative sections with important subtopics related to the main topic in each section. Preoperative topics include medications, assessment of cardiac status, and hemodynamic goals for this surgery. Issues discussed related to intraoperative management include monitoring, induction, maintenance, and aortic cross-clamping and unclamping. Postoperative concerns discussed include extubation, decreased renal function, spinal cord ischemia, and other complications affecting the cardiovascular, respiratory, renal, and gastrointestinal systems.

Aim: The aim of this study was to compare midterm mortality between anemic and nonanemic patients undergoing endovascular repair of abdominal aortic aneurysm and to assess a correlation with markers of inflammation. Methods: Anemia was defined as hemoglobin <13 (men) and <12 g/dL (women). The impact of anemia and inflammatory markers on mortality was assessed using Kaplan-Meier curves and Cox regression. Results: A total of 224 patients (12 females [5.36%]; age: 69.73 ± 8.72 years) were included; 102 (45.53%) were anemic. Median follow-up was 17 months (interquartile range: 7-25 months). Nine patients died (1.79%; 8 anemic vs 1 nonanemic). Survival was lower for patients with anemia (log-rank, P = .01). White blood cell count and C-reactive protein (CRP) differed significantly ( P < .001 and P = .01). Anemia and CRP were associated with decreased survival (Cox regression, P = .01, hazard ratio [HR]: 0.35, 95% confidence interval: 0.14-0.84 and P = .002, HR: 1.18, 95% CI: 1.06-1.31). Conclusion: Patients with anemia had decreased survival over the midterm; inflammatory markers were higher among this group.
