AB  - Aneurysmal  degeneration  of  the  aorta  is  defined  as  dilation  of  the  blood  vessel  1.5  times  of  or  greater  than  its  normal  diameter.1  Aortic  aneurysms  carry  a  significant  risk  of  morbidity  and  mortality.  The  UK  Small  Aneurysms  Study  found  that  of  103  recorded  ruptured  abdominal  aortic  aneurysm  (AAA),  25%  died  without  even  reaching  the  hospital.2  Given  this,  understanding  the  etiology  and  diagnosis  is  of  the  utmost  importance  to  avoid  death  from  aneurysm  rupture.
