High proportion of undiagnosed diabetes in patients surgically treated for infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm: findings from the multicentre Norwegian Aortic Aneurysm and Diabetes (ABANDIA) Study
Twenty-five percent of all DM cases were undiagnosed at the time of AAA surgery. Based on post-hoc analyses, undiagnosed DM seems to be associated with an increased risk of organ related complications following AAA surgery. This study suggests universal DM screening in AAA patients to reduce the number of DM patients being undiagnosed and to improve proactive diabetes care in this population. The results from post-hoc analyses should be confirmed in future studies.
