Gender-based differences of intraoperative transfusion during open surgery for descending thoracic and abdominal aortic aneurysms: a retrospective single-center cohort study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Several studies have reported gender-based differences in prognosis following open surgery repair (OSR) and endovascular therapy for treating aortic aneurysms. However, the blood transfusion rates for both gender and the predictors of intraoperative transfusion during OSR for Descending Thoracic and Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms (DTAA) remain uncertain.

Methods

Data of Patients with DTAA who underwent OSR at our center between August 2002 and December 2021 were retrospectively collected. Specific aneurysms and preoperative anemia were excluded from the study. Transfusion of blood products was recorded. Logistic regression analyses were conducted to identify the factors significantly related to transfusion. An adjusted analysis of the association between gender and re
