[Infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysms].

Giornale italiano di cardiologia (2006), 2007
The incidence of and mortality from ruptured infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) are increasing. Therefore, it is important to identify groups at high risk. Tobacco use, hypertension, a family history of AAA, and male sex are clinical risk factors for the development of an aneurysm.
