Objective The relationship between intraluminal thrombus (ILT) and abdominal aortic
aneurysm (AAA) growth and rupture risk remains ambiguous. Studies have shown a limited …

Background Intraluminal thrombus (ILT) is present in most abdominal aortic aneurysms
(AAAs), although its role in AAA progression is controversial. Methods A literature search …

Objective Most abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) contain intraluminal thrombus (ILT),
which has been demonstrated to contain proteolytic enzymes and proinflammatory cytokines …

Objectives The impact of intraluminal thrombus (ILT) on abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA)
progression can be investigated non-invasively by three dimensional contrast enhanced …

Background: Intraluminal thrombi in the abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) were
demonstrated to increase aneurysm growth. The effect of treatments on thrombus reduction …

Objective To investigate whether the relative size of intraluminal thrombus (ILT) in
abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) is associated with AAA growth. Methods This large …

Background Though the pathophysiology of initiation, formation, and expansion of
abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) has been intensely researched, the distinct mechanisms …

Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is characterized by chronic inflammation and degradation
of the extracellular matrix by proteases, such as matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), leading …

Background: An intraluminal, non-occlusive thrombus (ILT) is a common feature in an
abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). This study investigated the relative progression of ILT vs …

Background Intraluminal thrombus (ILT) within abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) may be
a potential marker for subsequent aneurysm growth. Purpose To investigate the role of ILT in …
