Abstract
Objective: The relationship between nutritional status and morbidity and death in a number of diseases and disorders has garnered considerable attension. In patients having endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) for abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA), we assessed the prognostic value of nutritional markers of albumin (ALB), body mass index (BMI), and geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI) for long-term mortality.
