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 ...

Radiology, 1979
Three children with aneurysms of the thoracic aorta were studied. The clinical presentation, radiographic findings, and etiologic factors are discussed. These lesions are associated with a poor prognosis and only one patient survived. The radiographic appearance of an enlarging mediastinal mass close to the aorta should suggest an aneurysm of the ...
