Follow-up data indicate that the mortality of nonoperative treatment is considerably greater than that of excision of the lesion, in spite of the poor operative risk of many patients in this group. The nonoperative mortality within 1 year of diagnosis was approximately 50 per cent. Many of these patients died of rupture of the aneurysm.
