Abstract
OBJECTIVES
The aim of this study was to identify risk factors of major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) in octogenarians who received elective endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR).
METHODS
Consecutive patients aged ≥ 80 years undergoing elective EVAR from 2009 to 2020 were retrospectively evaluated. The primary outcome was long-term MACCE. All independent risk factors for outcomes were determined by multivariate logistic analysis or Cox regression analysis.
RESULTS
A total of 163 patients were enrolled in this study. The median age was 81 (interquartile range, IQR, 80-84) years and 85.9% (140/163) of them were male. MACCE happened in 2.5% (4/163) patients within 30 days. With median follow-up of 28 (IQR, 15-46) months, the incidence of long-term MACCE was 26.4% (43/163). Arrythmia was significantly associated with long-term MACCE (hazard ratio, HR = 2.64, 95% confidence interval, CI, 1.16-6.03, P = .021). Carotid artery disease was found a significant association with 2-year MACCE (odd ratio, OR = 6.50, 95% CI, 1.07-39.51, P = .042). Besides, we found that arrythmia and congestive heart failure (CHF) were predictors for overall survival (arrythmia, HR = 2.56, 95% CI, 1.05-6.28, P = .039; CHF, HR = 8.96, 95% CI, 2.12-37.79, P = .003).
CONCLUSIONS
EVAR in octogenarians had acceptable perioperative risk and long-term outcome. Considering high risk of 2-year MACCE, intervention strategy should be more cautious for patients with carotid artery disease. Octogenarians with arrythmia and CHF should receive stricter postoperative management in case of MACCE.
