When should I see myÌýdoctor:

  • Patient who experience any acute symptoms suggestive of a thoracic aneurysm:
    • Sudden onset of chest pain or back pain
    • Sudden onset of belly and /or back pain
  • Feel light headed
  • Anyone with an identified thoracic aneurysm should be carefully monitored in a scheduled surveillance program, managed by your doctor or an aortic specialist
  • All men 65-80 and all women who have smoked or have hearth disease and are between 65-80 should have an abdominal ultrasound to rule out an abdominal aneurysm
