Objective: The aim of this study was to show the effect of the presence of AAC on mortality after lumbar degenerative disc surgery and to determine whether it is a predictor of survival.
Methods: Between 2014 and 2016, abdominal aortic calcifications were recorded by grade in patients who underwent surgery for degenerative lumbar disc herniation and therefore underwent updated lumbar CT. In addition to the demographic data of these patients, ASA scores were also recorded and these scores were statistically compared.
Results: The age of the patients in the Advanced Calcification group was significantly (p < 0.05) higher than that in the Mild Calcification group. The ASA score in the Advanced Calcification group was significantly (p < 0.05) higher than the Mild Calcification group. . Ex rate in the Advanced Calcification group was significantly (p < 0.05) higher than the Mild Calcification group.
Conclusion: There is a strong correlation between the degree of abdominal aortic calcifications and patient survival. This relationship is thought to be an important guiding scoring for spinal surgeons in the preoperative preparation phase.
