Aortic Aneurysm Definition
Permanent focal dilatation of artery greater than 1.5 times its
NL diameter

location• abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA).
• thoracic aneurysms (TA).
• thoracoabdominal aneurysms (TAA).

Wall:false or true
• blood vessel has 3 layers: the intima ,media and adventitia
• The wall of a true aneurysm involves all 3 layers
• The wall of a false or pseudoaneurysm only involves the outer layer

shape • saccular
• fusiform

PATHOPHYSIOLOGY
• Most of the elasticity and tensile strength of the aorta is derived from its medial layer
• consists of approximately 45 to 55 lamellar units of elastin, collagen, smooth muscle cells, and ground substance
• elastin content diminishes as one proceeds distally into the descending thoracic and abdominal aorta
• Most aortic aneurysms occur in the infrarenal segment (95%).

The aortic wall is a biologically active environment

tension = pressure x radius
• Larger aneurysms have a greater risk of rupture.
• Larger aneurysms have an increased growth rates (0/08-0/5cm/year)

• prevalence : 3-4% in individuals older than 65 years.
• Begin at approximately age 50years and reaches peak incidence at 80 years
• Men affected 4x more
• Rupture of an AAA usually is a lethal event , carrying an overall mortality rate of 80-90%

Etiology Degenerative (arteriosclerotic)(Cystic medial
degeneration )
previous aortic dissection
connective-tissue disease (marfan, Ehler-
Danlos Type IV)
Imflamatory (Autoimmune)
Traumatic
Congenital:15% of first-degree relatives of
patients

Aortic dissection
![Page 14: Aortic Aneurysm](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022033103/56816367550346895dd43eea/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Mycotic aneurysm
• fewer than 5% of cases
• hematogenous origin
• Sacular
• Most commonly cause:S.aureus and S.epidermidis

Symptoms & Sign1. Mass.
2. Displacement of adjucent structure
3. Compression of adjucent structure:
esophagus,trachea,SVC,nerve,renal,….
4. Erosion of adjucent structure
5. Rupture
6. Distal embolism

Physical examination
• blood pressures • Cervical bruits• Abdominal palpation • Abdominal bruits and trill• peripheral pulses

Diagnosis:• History & PE• X.ray• Sonography• Color duplex scanning• C T• MRI• Angiography

Diagnostic pathways Ultrasound is an excellent screening tool to identify with an AAA in unstable patient,
but is less reliable for detection of vascular rupture . sensitivity and specificity
approaching 100% and 96%
CT is accurate for both detection of an AAA and identifying leak or rupture. CT is
more useful in evaluation of symptomatic but stable patients
Angiography . Represent another option for evaluation of patient with symptomatic
AAA. Its primary function is for consulting surgeons who may obtain anatomic
information that will aid in the surgical plan.
MRI offers the advantages better than CT for defining three-dimensional views of
the aorta and surrounding vascular structures, but limited to patients with metalic
foreign object( I,e. pacemakers, surgical clips.

Treatment:1. Conservative manangment
- Drugs: B-Blockers / Indomethasin
- Monitor growth
- maintain BP
- Frequent CT Scans
2. Intervension:
- Intraluminal stent
- Surgery
