Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms [PDF]

Circulation, 1962
Of 141 patients with abdominal aortic aneurysms diagnosed at the Mayo Clinic from 1950 through 1959 who were not operated on, follow-up information was obtained from 137 patients (97.1 per cent). Of those followed 1 year or more, 87.6 per cent survived 1 year or more; 52.5 per cent survived 3 years, and 36.4 per cent survived 5 years after diagnosis ...

Staged triple endovascular approach for repair of aortocaval fistula secondary to ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm

Journal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques, 2023
A primary aortocaval fistula (ACF) is a rare complication of abdominal aortic aneurysms caused by erosion of the aortic wall into the vena cava. It is more frequently observed in the setting of ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms and presents a unique ...

Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm

The Journal of Clinical Hypertension, 2004
