Does peak wall stress correlate better with abdominal aortic aneurysm expansion than aortic diameter?
Objective: Level 1 evidence clearly supports ultrasound surveillance in abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) <5.5 cm in maximum AP diameter, with scanning interval set according to the size of aneurysm. Larger aneurysms tend to expand at a greater rate than smaller aneurysms. However, AAA expansio...
