Most small or slow-growing abdominal aortic aneurysms do not rupture. However, large or fast-growing abdominal aortic aneurysms may. Depending on the size and rate at which the aneurysm is growing, treatment may vary from watchful waiting to emergency surgery. More recently there is new technology being implemented.
Similar rate of growth is also observed for the tubular portion of the ascending aorta [23] . By the age of 75, normal ascending aorta diameter is approximately 3.6â3.7 cm for women (BSA: 1.95 m 2) and 4.1â4.2 cm for men (BSA: 2.35 m 2).he annual growth varies from 0.08 cm for small aneurysm (4.0 cm) to 0.16 cm for large aneurysm (8 cm) [24] . The rate of growth is also affected by the location of aneurysm. Aneurysms arising from ascending aorta grow slower (0.07 cm/yr) than the one from descending thoracic (0.19 cm/yr).
