Abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) are potentially life-threatening and have a poor prognosis if ruptured. Arterial aneurysms are defined as a permanent localised dilatation of the vessel, enlarging significantly compared to a relatively normal diameter of the adjacent artery. An AAA is characterised by abnormal focal dilation of the abdominal aorta that is often detected incidentally or only at the time of rupture. In this episode, Dr Roger Henderson looks at AAA risk factors, clinical presentations, diagnostic investigations, screening, treatments and prognosis.Access episode show notes containing key references and take-home points at:https://gpnotebook.com/en-GB/podcasts/cardiovascular-medicine/ep-173-abdominal-aortic-aneurysm (https://gpnotebook.com/en-GB/podcasts/cardiovascular-medicine/ep-173-abdominal-aortic-aneurysm).Did you know?
