Surgical or endovascular therapy of abdominal penetrating aortic ulcers and their natural history: a systematic review

George S Georgiadis et al. J Vasc Interv Radiol. 2013 Oct.

Keywords: IMH; PAU; SA; aPAU; abdominal penetrating aortic ulcer; intramural hematoma; penetrating aortic ulcer; saccular aneurysm.
