Talk about bad to the bone!
Aneurysms are common—but do you know which are the bad actors at risk for rupture?
This month's @the_ajnr SCANtastic shows you which aneurysms are bursting with risk!
https://t.co/lM5lk81f7h
Just remember the 4 B’s for BAD:
1. BIG
--Larger aneurysm = more likely to rupture
--Aneurysms > 7mm more likely to rupture
--Remember this b/c rolling a lucky 7 in Vegas makes you rupture w/excitement
2. BACK
--Aneurysms in the back are more likely to rupture
--PCOMM & post circ aneurysms are more likely to rupture
3. BLEB
--Aneurysms w/ “daughter” aneurysms or blebs are more likely to rupture
--Increases risk by 50%
4. BALLOONING
--Growing or ballooning aneurysm = increased risk of rupture
--Any growth by >1 mm in any diameter, increases the risk of rupture. Small changes do matter!
In this month’s @the_ajnr, Van Tuijl et al. used 4D MRA to show that these high-risk imaging findings are merely surrogate markers for low wall shear stress.
Low wall shear stress is bad bc shear stress is required to removed thrombus, plaque & inflammatory cells that weaken the aneurysm wall
So now hopefully your mind is bursting w/new things to look for w/aneurysms!
Check out the article for yourself: https://t.co/lM5lk81f7h
1/Time to rupture all your misconceptions about aneurysms!
When you see an aneurysm on imaging, do you know if it’s at high risk of rupture?
