Aneurysmal Disease of the Main Arteries

Abstract

The high incidence of aneurysms of different arterial systems in case of abdominal aortic aneurysm causes the need for the examination of all patients with aortic aneurysm in order to detect aneurysmal process in all main arteries. The use of the mentioned predictors of aneurism wall failure in daily clinical practice provides an opportunity to improve the results of surgical treatment. Active surgical approach in relation to aortic aneurysm and main arteries is indicated in the presence of aneurismal disease. The choice of treatment depends on the severity of the patient’s condition, clinical manifestations, localization of the aneurysm and its morphology, with the preference for endovascular approach.
