Nature Reviews Disease Primers, 2018
An abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a localized dilatation of the infrarenal aorta. AAA is a multifactorial disease, and genetic and environmental factors play a part; smoking, male sex and a positive family history are the most important risk factors, and AAA is most common in men >65 years of age.

Annals of Vascular Surgery, 1999
Most vascular surgeons believe that saccular aortic aneurysms have a more ominous natural history than the typical fusiform aneurysm, although this is not documented in the literature. Expeditious repair is indicated for symptomatic saccular aneurysms, and intervention is usually advocated even when they are asymptomatic because of the general belief ...

Progress in Cardiovascular Diseases, 2021
Abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) are prevalent among older adults and can cause significant morbidity and mortality if not addressed in a timely fashion. Their etiology remains the topic of continued investigation. Known causes include trauma, infection, and inflammatory disorders.

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 Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgeon, 1987
The historical development of knowledge of aneurysms is surveyed, particularly of those of thoracic aorta. There follows detailed considerations of the structure and structural properties of the aorta and its supports ("bobbins"). The degenerations of the aorta is described and discussed in considering the various basic types of aneurysm.

Acta Chirurgica Belgica, 2006
Remarkable progress has been made in the surgical treatment of thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms. The decline in mortality and complication rates can be attributed to improvements in perioperative care and in surgical technique, particularly the adoption of adjunct distal aortic perfusion and cerebrospinal fluid drainage.

The pathobiology of aortic aneurysms
Journal of Surgical Research, 2004Aneurysmal disease of the aorta, defined as a focal dilation exceeding 150% of the normal arterial diameter [1], is a potentially fatal disease occurring with increasing frequency in our aging population. Its prevalence is estimated at 3% in individuals over the age of 50 [2], with a peak incidence in the eighth decade of life [3, 4].

Thoracoabdominal Aortic Aneurysms
Surgical Clinics of North America, 1982Thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms present the greatest challenge to the vascular surgeon. The inclusion technique, which is based on reattachment of visceral vessel origins to openings made in the replacment aortic graft, was developed by Crawford and his associates.
