[Recent aspects in the diagnosis and therapy of inflammatory aneurysms of the abdominal aorta].
The so-called inflammatory infrarenal abdominal aneurysm is characterized by huge perianeurysmal retroperitoneal fibrosis, which may achieve a size of more than 1 to 2 cm. It impeats the surgical proceeding enormously. By means of computed tomography a diagnosis of this kind of aneurysm can already be given before the operation. A therapy of the fibrosis resp. the hereby caused complications especially in the urinary system is not an essential in the first place due to the fact that these complications tend to vanish spontaneously after the resection of the aneurysm.
