eFigure 12–9. CT angiography cross sectional image of a patient with a 5.5 cm aneurysm. Note the proximity of the aneurysm to the anterior abdominal wall. These vessels are easily palpable in 80% of patients. An axial CT scan shows an aneurysm.

eFigure 12–10. Longitudinal views of ultrasound of an AAA, clearly showing the aneurysm neck with no evidence of rupture. (Reproduced, with permission, from Dean RH, Yao JST, Brewster DC [editors]. Current Diagnosis & Treatment in Vascular Surgery. Originally published by Appleton & Lange. Copyright © 1995 by The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc.) Two longitudinal abdominal scans show the two views of aneurysm.

eFigure 12–11. Three-dimensional reconstruction of CT with contrast of the abdomen and pelvis demonstrating arteries above and below the aneurysm. A 3 D reconstructed C T scan of the abdomen and pelvis highlights an aneurysm. The arteries are red, with the aneurysm in white and enclosed within a rectangle. There is significant swelling above and below the aneurysm in the affected artery.

eFigure 10–18. Atrial septal anatomy. A: Embryologically, the septum primum (first septum) divides the atrium by migrating to the ventricles. The gap preceding the septal migration is the ostium primum. B: Once the septum primum completes its journey, fenestrations (holes) appear and generally coalesce into a single ostium secundum. C: A second septum (septum secundum) grows down on the right atrial side of the septum primum and covers the entire septal area except for a large oval hole that forms in its distal portion (the foramen ovale). D: I f there is redundancy of either the septum primum (as shown) or both septae, then that defines a septal aneurysm. Four illustrations, A through D, show atrial septal anatomy.

eFigure 10–52. Anterior wall aneurysm. The patient had a MI several months before this ECG was taken. Notice the prominent Q waves in leads V1 to V3 and aVL, the persistent ST elevations in these leads, and the reciprocal ST-segment depressions in the inferior leads (II, III, and aVF). The persistence of ST elevations more than 2–3 weeks after an infarction suggests the presence of a ventricular aneurysm. (Reproduced with permission from Goldberger AL et al. Clinical Electrocardiography: A Simplified Approach, 9th ed. Elsevier; 2018.) An electrocardiograph tracing shows the patterns indicative of an anterior wall aneurysm.
