absence of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm

AAA =Aneurisma dell'Aorta Addominale

Anyway, a strange report on an abdominal ultrasound. The diameters of the abdominal aorta are usually reported.

no abdominal aortic aneurysm

"Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA or triple A) is a localized enlargement of the abdominal aorta such that the diameter is greater than 3 cm or more than 50% larger than normal. They usually cause no symptoms, except during rupture."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abdominal_aortic_aneurysm

"Quando una zona della aorta addominale si espande o si gonfia come un palloncino, questa viene chiamata "aneurisma" dell’aorta addominale (AAA). La maggior parte degli aneurismi si forma al di sotto delle arterie che portano il sangue ai reni (arterie renali); normalmente esiste un piccolo tratto, ancora relativamente sano, tra arterie renali ed AAA, definito “colletto”.
