áratugi þrátt fyrir talsverða framþróun í
aðgerðartækni47,63.
Aðeins 10-18% sjúklinga lifa af rof á ósæð.
Aðrir deyja ýmist samstundis, í flutningi,
fyrir aðgerð, í aðgerð eða innan 30 daga eftir
aðgerð5,7,64,65.
Lokaorð
Ósæðargúll í kviðarholi er lífshættulegur
sjúkdómur og vegur rof þungt sem orsök
dauðsfalla á Vesturlöndum, sér í lagi hjá
eldri karlmönnum. Því er til mikils að vinna
að draga úr breytanlegum áhættuþáttum
ósæðargúla, einkum reykingum sem auka
algengi sjúkdómsins, rofhættu og minnka
lífslíkur í kjölfar aðgerðar. Undanfarna áratugi
hefur verið mikil framþróun í greiningu og
meðferð og hafa rannsóknir stutt ávinning
af skimun áhættuhópa. Auk þess hefur
ósæðarfóðring komið fram á sjónarsviðið sem
góð viðbót við meðferðarúrræði. Mikilvægt
er að læknar og annað heilbrigðisstarfsfólk
muni eftir einkennagefandi ósæðargúlum
sem mismunagreiningu kviðverks enda geta
afleiðingar rofs verið voveiflegar.
