Abdominal aortic aneurysms

Current Opinion in Cardiology, 1994
The management of abdominal aortic aneurysms has undergone tremendous evolution during the past three decades, resulting in significant advances in our ability to diagnose and safety treat patients with aneurysms. Over the past several years, most research interest has been focused on the etiology of aneurysmal disease, new imaging techniques, cardiac ...

Abdominal aortic aneurysms

Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 1999
The mortality rate after the rupture of an abdominal aortic aneurysm is 80% to 90%; therefore, the main goal of treatment is to prevent rupture. Patients with abdominal aortic aneurysms smaller than 5 cm in diameter should be managed conservatively under close surveillance with either computed tomography or sonography every 3 to 12 months.

Genetics of abdominal aortic aneurysm

Current Opinion in Cardiology, 2013
Family history is a risk factor for abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), suggesting that genetic factors play an important role in AAA development, growth and rupture. Identification of these factors could improve understanding of the AAA pathogenesis and be useful to identify at risk individuals.Many approaches are used to examine genetic determinants of ...

Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm

The Journal of Cardiovascular Nursing, 2001
Abdominal aortic aneurysm is a chronic dilation of the aorta with a natural history toward enlargement and rupture. Its pathogenesis is believed to be multifactorial and complex. Clinical presentation may be asymptomatic, symptomatic, or as rupture.

The unoperated abdominal aortic aneurysm

The American Journal of Surgery, 1966
Abstract Thirty patients with abdominal aortic aneurysms were followed up for five years or until they died. Two patients died from rupture of the aneurysm, twenty-seven and twenty-three months from the date of diagnosis. These two patients had little evidence of other arteriosclerotic cardiovascular disease and should have benefited from replacement

MicroRNAs in Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm

Current Vascular Pharmacology, 2015
Abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) are an important source of morbidity and mortality in the U.S. and worldwide. Treatment options are limited, with open surgery or endovascular repair remaining the only curative treatments. Classical cardiovascular medications have generally failed to prevent or significantly alter AAA formation or progression ...

ABDOMINAL AND THORACOABDOMINAL AORTIC ANEURYSM

Surgical Clinics of North America, 1998
Most abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) and thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms (TAAA) are asymptomatic and are found on physical exam or incidentally during radiological studies for other indications. These aneurysms are repaired primarily because their risk of rupture increases geometrically as the size exceeds 5 cm.

A Family with Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms

Angiology, 2003
This investigation focused on 7 siblings to 2 brothers with abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), with respect to AAA, Chlamydia pneumoniae (CP) serology, serum cholesterol, and smoking habits. Five male and 4 female siblings were included. All siblings underwent ultrasonography, and surgical specimens from the aorta were prepared for immunohistochemical ...

Abdominal aortic aneurysms in children

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1996
Abdominal aortic aneurysms are rare in children. Causes include mycotic aneurysms, vasculitides (eg, Takayasu's arteritis), connective tissue diseases (eg, Marfan's syndrome, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, and tuberous sclerosis) and traumatic false aneurysms. Four cases are described.

Abdominal aortic aneurysm.

The Journal of cardiovascular surgery, 2016
Endovascular repair of abdominal aortic aneurysms has become a milestone in the treatment of patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm. Technological improvement allows treatment in more and more complex cases. This review summarizes all grafts available on the market. A complete review of most important trial on this topic is provided to the best of our
