    Extractions: MassageToday.com Norman Engel, MS, DC, DABCO An aneurysm, by definition, is a sac formed by the dilatation of the wall of an artery, a vein or the heart. The chief signs of an arterial aneurysm are the formation of a pulsating tumor and often a bruit is heard over the swelling. Sometimes there are symptoms from pressure on contiguous parts. The aorta is the largest artery in the body. It arises from the left ventricle, ascending and bending over the heart, descending anteriorly to the thoracic and lumbar vertebrae. It splits at L-4 into the common iliacs, femorals, tibials, and dorsalis pedis arteries, supplying the lower extremities. The average diameter of aorta is 2.0-2.5 cm. More than 90 percent of abdominal aneurysms are associated with atherosclerosis and can cause leg pain (claudication), numbness or fatigue. An artery may be sclerosed (hardened) but if the lumenal diameter isn't altered, there is no aneurysm. Most abdominal aortic aneurysms do not produce symptoms, but some people feel a pulsating sensation in the abdomen. These silent (asymptomatic) aneurysms are often recognized by careful physical examination. Abdominal aortic aneurysm is most likely to occur in people older than 60 years, and it affects men more often than women.

Her twin sister. The aneurysm, a blister on a blood vessel on the brain, proved fatal for Ardith Eastlund's sister. Like 40 percent of people who suffer an aneurysm, her sister never awoke; she lingered for a week. A new procedure called "coiling" fills the aneurysm with tiny metal coils.

    Extractions: Web posted at: 2:20 p.m. EDT (1820 GMT) (CNN) People with abdominal aortic aneurysms, called AAAs, have until now had few treatment options besides a grueling surgery. But two new devices, approved by the Food and Drug Administration Tuesday, may offer a new way to repair this very dangerous bulge in an artery. An AAA is a weak area that develops in the wall of the main artery that brings blood flow into the abdomen. If the aneurysm breaks, it can cause almost instant fatal internal bleeding.

48. Chlamydia Pneumoniae Causes Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm
    Does Chlamydia Pneumoniae Cause Abdominal Aortic aneurysm?  
    http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/CarolASThompson/cpaaa.htm
    
    Extractions: Antibodies to Chlamydia pneumoniae are rarely found in children less than five years old; the primary infection usually occurs between ages 8 and 16. Reinfections occur throughout childhood, and the rate of infection is higher among men than women. In non-elderly people it causes mild respiratory symptoms, but may cause pneumonia in the elderly. Indications of the presence of Chlamydia pneumoniae have been found in the majority of studies which have looked for them. C pneumoniae was found in 11/25 aortas, 5/9 iliac arteries, 2/5 femoral arteries, and 1/2 iliac veins, by PCR in AAA specimens. It was also seen in vascular tissue from 3/6 "ostensibly normal" liver transplant donors, which showed some atherosclerotic changes. "The figures are perhaps conservative as it is possible that more specimens would be found to be C pneumoniae positive if a larger amount of tissue was examined." (Detection and widespread distribution of Chlamydia pneumoniae in the vascular system and its possible implications. G Ong, BJ Thomas, AO Mansfield, BR Davidson, D Taylor-Robinson. J Clin Pathol 1996 Feb;49(2):102-106). Ong - J Clin Pathol 1996 abstract / Pub Med In this study, 12 out of 12 consecutive patients who were operated on for AAA were positive for Chlamydia pneumoniae by immunohistochemistry.

Abdominal aortic aneurysm may be caused by infection, congenital weakening of the connective tissue component of the artery wall, or trauma. (An aneurysm caused by trauma is rare.) Abdominal aortic aneurysm can affect anyone, but it is most often seen in men aged 40 to 70. A common complication is rupture. This is a medical emergency where the aneurysm breaks open, resulting in profuse

    A public service web page with general information about a medical disease of aortic aneurysms written by a surgical group in Louisville Kentucky.

    Extractions: An aneurysm is a swelling or dilation of a weakened wall in an artery. Arterial aneurysms have a tendency to grow and burst causing life threatening bleeding. Treatment of this disease has been ongoing for many years through open surgical repair of the dilated artery. Using an abdominal incision, open surgical repair of abdominal aortic aneurysms allows complete removal of the aneurysm with replacement using a piece of Teflon tubing. Within the last five years a new approach to treating aortic aneurysms has been developed. This is a minimally endoscopic invasive approach that was pioneered by Surgical Care Associates in this area.

Ankylosing spondylitis Related information Types of low back pain Overview While low back pain rarely radiates to the abdomen, abdominal disorders can often extend to the back and be felt as acute low back pain. This process happens in an abdominal aortic aneurysm, which represents an enlargement of the aorta (large artery) in the abdomen. In the elderly population this is not uncommon and rarely is symptomatic. However, if the enlarged blood vessel begins to leak blood or ruptures it can cause severe, unremitting abdominal and back pain.

    Extractions: Best repaired in an elective, not an emergency, procedure Yara Gorski, MD; John J. Ricotta, MD VOL 106 / NO 2 / AUGUST 1999 / POSTGRADUATE MEDICINE CME learning objectives Preview : Surgery is the only effective treatment for an abdominal aortic aneurysm. Unless serious contraindications prohibit it, repair should be undertaken in all patients with a known aneurysm while it is still an elective procedure. Complication and mortality rates increase dramatically when an aneurysm ruptures and surgery becomes an emergency procedure. In this article, the authors discuss what is known about formation and rupture of aneurysms, including patients at risk. In addition, they summarize diagnostic procedures and preoperative, operative, and nonoperative patient care.
