Abstract
This study found a statistical correlation between the measurement of the GFR and the various formulas available to estimation the GFR among AAA patients. The CKD-EPI formula is most appropriate. However, there were important individual variations between the measurement and the estimations of the GFR. A larger scale study is necessary to determine the profile of the patients with a risk of error in the estimation of the GFR. The French recommendations on the evaluation of the renal function before AAA treatment remain based on serum creatinine and should be revalued.
