Aneurysm diameter is the most studied factor to be associated with expansion and the main indication for intervention. Appropriate diagnostic modalities may account for different anatomical characteristics and identify aneurysms with rapid growth and higher rupture risk. Future perspectives, including computed mathematical models that will assess wall stress and elasticity and further flow characteristics, may offer valuable alternatives in AAA growth prediction.
