The risk of abdominal aortic aneurysm rupture prediction according to computed tomography data

Background . Abdominal aortic aneurysm – is a widespread disease, which in some cases does not have any specific clinical symptoms, but possible complications of this pathology are characterized by high mortality. Aortic aneurism rupture an extremely serious condition that requires emergency surgical treatment. A timely diagnosis abdominal aneurysm’s risk remains important, since the patient mortality rate up to 7 times higher when performing surgery, than planned surgery. Aim study : improve aneurysms instability creating assessing scale according computed tomography data. Materials and methods CT studies were performed 160-slice scanner included native arterial phases scanning. The MSCT data 179 patients with diagnosed retrospectively studied, 46 whom was complicated rupture. scans can reveal number structural changes aorta also surrounding tissues, be regarded as wall prediction. That stratified severity preliminary results compared treatment tactics outcome disease. Results shows minimum sufficient set predictions are: size, sickle sign, draping paraaortic fat induration, thickness parietal thrombotic masses. obtained parameters give possibility predict risks AAA prognostic represented 4-point for parameters. Depending on influence degree each parameter, it assigned points corresponding level significance. maximum factors 17 points. Finding rupture’s developed.
