Abstract
The purpose of these recommendations is to provide a standard format for reporting treatment results and standardised epidemiologic data after aortic vascular graft infection to improve the comparison of clinical outcomes between different therapeutic approaches and different study populations. Analytical reporting standards for patients' characteristics, type and extent of the disease, type of treatment and study design are described. Adherence to these recommendations will improve clinical relevance, quality and comparability of future studies dealing with aortic vascular graft infections.
