Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm is often called a "silent killer" because there are usually no obvious symptoms of the disease. Three out of four aneurysms show no symptoms at the time they are diagnosed. This talk will focus on the importance of knowing who is most at risk, and how AAA is diagnosed and treated before it becomes a fatal condition.

Speaker: Ronald L. Dalman, MD
