AAA is usually asymptomatic; however, if it becomes large, some people may develop pain or a pulsating feeling in their abdomen or persistent back pain. Generic, disease-specific and preference-based patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) can be used to assess the quality-of-life (QoL) of patients with AAA (including those under surveillance or undergoing endovascular or open surgery) in a clinical setting. However, these tools vary in terms of their reliability, validity and suitability for measuring the QoL of patients. <div><br></div><div>The aim of this review was to identify and summarise PROMs that have been administered to patients with AAA with a view to generating a library of utility values.</div>
