The permanent enlargement of some portion of a blood vessel is often described as bulging, ballooning or dilated. The diameter of the enlargement will determine whether or not it is considered an aneurysm. Traditionally for the aorta, any permanently dilated section measuring 4.0 cm or greater in diameter has been called an aneurysm.
Whether the aorta is called "dilated" or the word "aneurysm" is used, any enlargement of the aorta, regardless of its size, is an indication of aortic disease and requires treatment. Aortic enlargement, although perhaps not yet qualified for the term aneurysm, should be monitored, treated medically, and the lifestyle and diet of the patient addressed. <hr height="1" noshade id="quote"></blockquote id="quote"></font id="quote">

It doesn't just rain, it pours in this house! Hopefully not that, but they want to test his liver and pancreas too. He has been getting abdominal pains for a month now.

Well therein lies his problem. Tell him to swap them for Kendas instead.

This is probably his problem all along. Never quite got the hang of using rubbers right.

It depends on what was actually said,where and how bad the pains are(have been).I think dialating aorta`s happen generally at a later age,but then there is peritonitis and other possibilities.When will you know?

Well he's back! They just took blood. Ultrasound scan of the aorta is a 6 week wait! Trying to push it through. Hopefully its just stomach acid lol.

How old is he?? V. unlikely to be a AAA if he's a similar age to you. If the surgeons have organised an outpatient USS they don't think it is that either. Nor do they think it is anything else life threatening. Anything else of interest in his past??
Big drinker?
Recently started on any new meds?
Recently been taking any over the counter meds?
Does he keep scorpions?
Been on holiday any exciting?
etc. etc....
Trust me, I'm a doctor!

He likes a drink,
No
Nah
Not recently
Actually yes! Eastern Europe tour.
To be honest I think he is a hypo, must run in the family.
