Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) rupture is the 13th commonest cause of death in the
Western World. Although considerable research has been applied to the aetiology and …

An arterial aneurysm is defined as a focal dilation of a blood vessel with respect to the
original artery. The risk of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) increases dramatically in the …

Objective/Background Epidemiological screening studies have demonstrated that the
prevalence of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) of Asian origin appears to be low and so …

Objectives Rupture risk in abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) is assessed using AAA
diameter; yet 10% of ruptures occur in a small aneurysm. This underlines the inadequacy of …

Purpose: The goal of the current study was to identify the risk of rupture in the entire
abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) population detected through screening and to review …

OBJECTIVES:: To study 40–55 mm aneurysms and calculate their size in relation to the
individual predicted normal aortic diameter to see if this might add anything in the evaluation …

Objective To translate the individual abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) patient's
biomechanical rupture risk profile to risk-equivalent diameters, and to retrospectively test …

Background: Many patients with an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) who are cared for by
internists are not good candidates for surgery. Elective repair is usually deferred in these …

Seventy-three patients with small (< 6 cm in diameter) abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs)
were selected for nonoperative management and followed up with sequential ultrasound …

Abstract The Uk Small Aneurysm Trial has shown that ultrasound surveillance is a safe
management option for patients with small abdominal aortic aneurysms (4.0 to 5.5 cm in …
