What is sacular aneurysm?
aneurysm is an abnormal bulge or a balloon in the artery wall that may be caused by damage to the blood vessel or weakness in the walls of the blood vessels. The saccular aneurysm looks like a small, irregular bag. While aneurysm can occur anywhere in the body, the most likely places are the brain or brain and aorta, a large blood vessel that travels from the left ventricle, through the chest and brings blood to vital organs. When the aorta reaches the lower abdomen, it branches into two smaller arteries that transfer blood to the pelvis and feet. Suddenly they were considered congenital, although the studies seem to be contrary to this assumption. There are some genetic abnormalities such as autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) associated with intracranial aneurysm. In fact, a significant number of patients with brain aneurysmus have more lesions, although it is much more likely in women than in men.
The most common cause of brain aneurysms is hymodynamicallyana degenerative vascular damage. Rare cases may also result in trauma, cocaine, tumor or infection. Treatment is generally recommended, although the method depends on the location of the lesion. Surgical methods include trimming the area or the endovascular process called Coiliag.
saccular aneurysm is most likely to be formed in the aorta and most of them are abdominal. Men between the ages of 40 and 80 are most likely to develop abdominal aneurysms, usually due to atherosclerosis or harvesting of arteries. It is unlikely that the abdominal sacular aneurysm would be torn if it evolves slowly and is not greater than one and half to two inches (4-5 cm). If an aneurysm increases faster or greater, intervention is recommended. Surgical repair involves removing the weakened part of the artery and replacing it with a polyester tube.
aortic aneurysm can also be thoracic, which meansthat it is formed above the diaphragm. In addition, they may occur in people who have connective tissue disorders or are caused by trauma, such as car accident, prolonged high blood pressure and previous tearing of arterial walls. Surgical repair depends on where the sacular aneurysm is located. If it is in the ascending aorta, which is located at the front of the heart, surgery is recommended if it reaches about two inches (5 cm). If the lesion is in the descending aorta, the operation is generally delayed until the lesion is almost two and half inches (approximately 6 cm).
aneurysms are considered quiet killer kilometers because they can grow for years without representing any symptoms. If symptoms occur, it varies depending on the location of the side aneurysm. Aortic lesions generally do not show any symptoms unless it is large enough to prevent blood flow, push other parts of the body or rupture. If symptoms occur, they will usually include a pulsating feeling in the abdomen orpulsating back or abdominal pain.
When thoracic sacular aneurysm reveals symptoms, usually include back pain, neck or jaws, cough, hoarseness and breathing problems. Cerebral aneurysms can cause misdemeanors, double or blurred vision, widespread pupils and face numbness. In all cases, the rupture is generally accompanied by sharp pain in the affected area. There are nausea, vomiting, nitivity and loss of consciousness. Internal bleeding can quickly cause shock and death unless the patient receives immediate emergency medical assistance.
