Two cases of ruptured aortic aneurysms with severe complication were analyzed. Aorta reconstruction procedures were performed using bifurcated e-PTFE grafts during emergency operation. Diagnosis, preoperadve resuscitation, emergency surgical intervention, and postoperative complications of these patients were summarized and discussed.Results. Rupture of aortic aneurysm in both patients presented as a huge retroperitoneum haematoma by computed tomography scan. They were successfully saved by prompt body fluid compensation, emergency procedure, intraoperative resuscitation, and postoperative intensive care.Conclusions. Correct diagnosis, prompt surgical management, immediate intraoperative proximal aorta clamping during procedure, and effective management of postoperative complications were the key points to successful treatment of ruptured aortic aneurysm.展开更多
