PURPOSE: This study aimed to evaluate the association between the outflow morphology and abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) rupture risk, to find risk factors for future prediction models.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed 46 patients with ruptured AAAs and 46 patients with stable AAAs using a 1:1 match for sex, age, and maximum aneurysm diameter. The chi-square test, paired t-test, and Wilcoxon signed-rank test were used to compare variables. Logistic regression was performed to evaluate variables potentially associated with AAA rupture. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis and the area under the curve (AUC) were used to assess the regression models.
RESULTS: Ruptured AAAs had a shorter proximal aortic neck (median (interquartile range, IQR): 24.0 (9.4-34.2) mm vs. 33.3 (20.0-52.8) mm, p = 0.004), higher tortuosity (median(IQR): 1.35 (1.23-1.49) vs. 1.29 (1.23-1.39), p = 0.036), and smaller minimum luminal area of the right common iliac artery (CIA) (median (IQR): 86.7 (69.9-126.4) mm2 vs. 118.9 (86.3-164.1)mm2, p = 0.001) and left CIA (median(IQR): 92.2 (67.3,125.1) mm2 vs. 110.7 (80.12, 161.1) mm2, p = 0.010) than stable AAA did. Multiple regression analysis demonstrated significant associations of the minimum luminal area of the bilateral CIAs (odds ratio [OR] = 0.996, 95 % confidence interval [CI] 0.991-0.999, p = 0.037), neck length (OR = 0.969, 95 % CI 0.941-0.993, p = 0.017), and aneurysm tortuosity (OR = 1.031, 95 % CI 1.003-1.063, p = 0.038) with ruptured AAAs. The AUC of this regression model was 0.762 (95 % CI 0.664-0.860, p < 0.001).
CONCLUSIONS: The smaller minimum luminal area of the CIA is associated with an increased risk of rupture. This study highlights the potential of utilizing outflow parameters as novel and additional tools in risk assessment. It also provides a compelling rationale to further intensify research in this area.
