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.

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 ...

Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology, 2012 Objective— Patients with abdominal aortic aneurysms have lower concentrations of high-density lipoproteins (HDLs), leading us to investigate whether increasing plasma HDLs could influence aneurysm formation. Methods and Results— Using the angiotensin II−

ABDOMINAL AND THORACOABDOMINAL AORTIC ANEURYSM
Surgical Clinics of North America, 1998Most 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.

Infrarenal Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm
Surgical Clinics of North America, 2023Abdominal aortic aneurysms are found in up to 6% of men and 1.7% of women over the age of 65 years and are usually asymptomatic. The natural history of aortic aneurysms is continued dilation leading to rupture, which is associated with an overall 80% mortality.

Infected Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm
Southern Medical Journal, 1985In the surgical literature, 37 survivors of infected abdominal aortic aneurysmorrhaphy have been reported. The diagnosis is suspected if a patient with fever, leukocytosis, and abdominal pain is noted on physical examination to have a pulsatile abdominal mass. Confirmation is best obtained with computerized tomography and angiography.

Genetics of abdominal aortic aneurysm
Current Opinion in Cardiology, 2013Family 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 ...

Vitamins and abdominal aortic aneurysm
International Angiology, 2017To summarize the association of vitamins (B6, B12, C, D, and E) and abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), we reviewed clinical studies with a comprehensive literature research and meta-analytic estimates.To identify all clinical studies evaluating the association of vitamins B6/B12/C/D/E and AAA, databases including MEDLINE, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Central

Pharmacotherapy of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms
Current Vascular Pharmacology, 2006Aortic aneurysms account for 10,000 deaths annually in the UK, due to rupture. At present the only effective therapeutic strategy to treat abdominal aortic aneurysms is to surgically repair them; this carries an elective mortality of up to 10%. Recent advances in vascular biology have led to a greater understanding of the pathophysiological process ...

Infected Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms
Southern Medical Journal, 1987We report five cases of infected abdominal aortic aneurysm managed at the St. Thomas Hospital between 1975 and 1985. Two patients died, one before operation, and another during surgical repair of aneurysmal rupture. Three patients survived, all of whom had primary repair of the aorta or in situ Dacron graft reconstruction.
