Plasma D‐dimer as a predictor of the progression of abdominal aortic aneurysm
Essentials D‐dimer could provide important information about abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) progression. The greatest diameter of the infrarenal aorta and the value of plasma D‐dimer were determined. AAA progression is correlated with increasing plasma D‐dimer levels. The increasing value of plasma D‐dimer could be a predictor of aneurysm progression.
