How do you deal with an ascending aortic aneurysm? - aortic aneurysm
My sister had an aneurysm of the ascending aorta was 5.3 cm. It has developed over the past year. He stopped to smoke on the diagnosis, but is lethargic, overweight, and have fear. He postponed the surgery to lose weight and because the aneurysm has not increased. But they panic whenever he feels "strange" feeling. I do not know how to help.

D. .. You need this kind of operations that is 5.3 big enough ... I had my set at 5.0 and I had my aortic valve replaced at the same time. Do you have bicuspid aortic valve ... is a phenomenon together on these 2 things. The premolars Foundation has a lot of information on aneurysms of the ascending aorta.
Here are some websites that are you a wealth of information you can trust.

The replacement of the valve can not be real, what is needed at this time, but many people had been subjected to two treatments (such as myself to save the same time) operation in the next 10 years to repair the valve. It will also give you a lot of useful information for thought.
I had no fear when I am after my surgery I was really excited that the aneurysm came, I was not in danger.
Tell him you go to your doctor and ask for a minimally invasive endovascular graft received, put the aorta. It is a procedure in which a catheter into the femoral artery in the leg to the aorta. It is done in real time with X-ray dye so that the doctor will carry out the procedures to be the right place for the stent graft. This should completely solve your problem and stop growing aneurysm.
She really needs surgery on her. If they fail to lose weight is not yet lost. Aneurysms are time bombs. Tell him how you want. In the case of a rupture of the aneurysm of the aorta, since almost no one survived to bleed internally so fast.

I do not know what is the maximum size, where you have aneurysms over 5 cm, but here (in Australia) is possible in the surgery so soon.
