  • Title: The epidemiology of abdominal aortic aneurysm.
    Author: Collin J.
    Journal: Br J Hosp Med; 1988 Jul; 40(1):64-7. PubMed ID: 3167293.
    Abstract:
    Abdominal aortic aneurysm is common and aneurysm rupture accounts for 1.7% of all deaths in men aged 65-74 years. Most deaths are now preventable. Early diagnosis by routine ultrasound examination of the abdominal aorta in elderly men should permit elective aneurysm replacement before rupture in the majority of patients.
