    Inflammatory Aortic Aneurysms occur typically in a younger population compared to the typical Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm group. Risk of rupture for the IAA group, due to thinning of aneurysm walls, are also rare due to inflammation and fibrosis [4] Unruptured inflammatory AAAs are usually symptomatic: [citation needed] abdominal or back pain (70 ...

    Fusiform aneurysms ("spindle-shaped" aneurysms) are variable in both their diameter and length; their diameters can extend up to 20 cm (7.9 in). They often involve large portions of the ascending and transverse aortic arch, the abdominal aorta, or, less frequently, the iliac arteries. [3]: 357

    Mycotic abdominal aorta aneurysm (MAAA) is a rare and life-threatening condition. Because of its rarity, there is a lack of adequately powered studies and consensus on its treatment and follow up. A management protocol on the management of mycotic abdominal aortic aneurysm was recently published in the Annals of Vascular Surgery by Premnath et ...
