[Inflammatory aneurysm of the abdominal aorta. Study of 355 patients with aortic aneurysm].
The Authors report their experience in the treatment of inflammatory aneurysm, on a whole of 355 patients consecutively operated on for abdominal aortic aneurysm. The incidence was 5.6% when relying on clinical aspects; 10.6% when considering the results of microscopy. All patients were operated on through a retroperitoneal approach: early and late results of surgery were not significantly different between the two groups of patients (inflammatory aneurysm 38, atherosclerotic aneurysm 317).
