    Špan, Matjaž ; Gračner, Rajko, 1943-2025
    There are 5 to 8 % of men after the age of sixty who have an aneurysm of the abdominal aorta. The disease affects elderly white men 5 times more often thanwomen. Smoking appears to be the risk factor ... most strongly associated withaortic abdominal aneurysm, wheras other risk factors are aneurysms of other vessels, high blood pressure and family predisposition. Most aneurysms are nowadays detected incidentally based on radiologic studies obtained for other reasons. Clinical findings my be varied and range from asymptomatic to local compression symptoms, including early satiety, nausea, vomiting urinary symptoms, or venous thrombosis from venous compression. The most reliable and most widely used radiological methods are angiography and computerized tomographic scanning. Both methods have advantages and disadvantages. In addition to characterizing the aneurysm, the patient's history, general condition, additional diseases and patient's surgical risk have to be evaluated.
