National outcomes for elective abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repair in elderly populations are needed. The purpose of this study was to analyze outcomes of endovascular (EVAR) and open. surgical repair (OSR) of elective AAA among the elderly 80 years).Methods. Patients undergoing non emergent AAA repair between January 1, 2005 and December 31, 2008, were identified using the American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (ACS NSQIP). Logistic regression models were used to compare risk-adjusted 30-day outcomes.Results. Of 7,936 patients identified, 2,034 (25.6%) were >= 80 years. Older patients were more likely to experience adverse 30-day outcomes as compared with patients
