“…The data from our systematic review do not suggest that the proportion of women morphologically suitable for EVAR has improved since earlier this century. 6,7 However, the operative mortality in both men and women has fallen substantially since a 2010 systematic review, 9 particularly for open repair; although 30-day operative mortality remains almost twice as high in women as in men. Some of the reduction in operative mortality in women might have come at the expense of the high proportion of women (a third) who are assigned to a non-intervention policy; although, the literature on non-intervention policy remains sparse.…”

“…First, we obtained data for the proportion of men and women with abdominal aortic aneurysm being assessed for aneurysm repair who were morphologically suitable for EVAR (EVAR suitability review); second, we obtained data for the proportion of men and women not offered aneurysm repair (non-intervention review); and finally, we obtained data for the elective operative (30 day) mortality in men and women after either EVAR or open repair reported since an earlier review 9 was published in 2010, (operative mortality review). A favourable ethical opinion for the systematic reviews done for the SWAN project was obtained from the West of Scotland REC 5 (15/WS/0136).…”
