Investigation scheme: after obtaining the inform consent of the patient, several samples or investigations will be done: blood (PTMDPs and hematological paramaters), measurement of skin autofluorescence (AGE-Reader), skin biopsy collection (2 to 3 mm wide and a few centimeters during the laparotomy), a biopsy of both aneurysmal and not aneurysmal aortic wall (from the abdominal aorta fragment usually resected part of the surgery and therefore being surgical waste) and collection of intra-aneurysmal and peri-thrombotic liquid (if available).
