In order to seek for the factors to suggest a risk of rupture of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA), we measured the largest diameter of AAA and the thickness of intra-luminal thrombus on CT in 72 patients. The mean aneurysmal size was 64 mm in diameter in 9 patients with ruptured aneurysm and 61 mm in diameter in 63 patients with non-ruptured aneurysm respectively (p less than 0.90). The rupture of AAA was seen in 3 of 30 patients with AAA of the small size (less than 50 mm in diameter), in 3 of 16 patients with AAA of the intermediate size (51-66 mm in diameter) and in 3 of 26 patients with AAA of the large size (more than 70 mm in diameter), respectively. The mean intra-luminal thrombus was 9 mm in 9 patients with ruptured aneurysm and 19 mm in thickness in 63 patients with non-ruptured aneurysm respectively (p = 0.05). We concluded from the above results that the aneurysmal size was not important, but the thickness of intra-luminal thrombus was useful for suggestion of a risk of rupture of AAA.
