Ruptured Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm as the Initial Manifestation of Undiagnosed Pheochromocytoma [PDF]

open access: yesIJU Case Rep
ABSTRACT Introduction Pheochromocytoma is a rare catecholamine‐secreting tumor that can cause severe cardiovascular complications. Its association with ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm is extremely rare. Case Presentation A 57‐year‐old man with no significant medical history presented with sudden abdominal pain and hemorrhagic shock.

Systematic review and meta-analysis of the growth and rupture rates of small abdominal aortic aneurysms: implications for surveillance intervals and their cost-effectiveness. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BACKGROUND: Small abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs; 3.0-5.4 cm in diameter) are usually asymptomatic and managed by regular ultrasound surveillance until they grow to a diameter threshold (commonly 5.5 cm) at which surgical intervention is considered ...

Characterising recovery following abdominal aortic aneurysm repair using cardiopulmonary exercise testing and patient reported outcome measures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Purpose: Surgery is associated with a post-operative stress response, changes in cardiopulmonary reserve, and metabolic demand. Here recovery after abdominal aortic aneurysm repair is investigated using cardiopulmonary exercise testing and patient ...

Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm

open access: yesThe Journal of Clinical Hypertension, 2004
An abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is defined as a localized dilation of the artery that is 1.5 times the diameter of the normal segment. The most common location for an aortic aneurysm is the infrarenal segment where a diameter that exceeds 3 cm in diameter is considered aneurysmal.

Extracellular matrix composition and remodeling in human abdominal aortic aneurysms: a proteomics approach. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) are characterized by pathological remodeling of the aortic extracellular matrix (ECM). However, besides the well-characterized elastolysis and collagenolysis little is known about changes in other ECM proteins.

Endovascular repair of an abdominal aortic aneurysm associated with crossed fused renal ectopia

open access: yesJournal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques, 2020
Chimney/snorkel endovascular aneurysm repair (Ch-EVAR) enables the minimally invasive treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysm in anatomically challenging and high-risk surgical cases. Here, we present the case of a 77-year-old man with an abdominal aortic
