Abstract
Screening for abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) reduces rupture related deaths, and is a cost effective preventive measure.1 Although population screening for AAA for men aged 65 years is recommended in guidelines, this strategy has only been implemented in a few countries.2 The national screening programme in England is one of the most comprehensive efforts in this field. Continuous evaluation of the outcome of this health intervention is of great value, as both the epidemiology of the disease and the treatment options change over time.
