Celiac Artery Aneurysm: Anyone else with same illness?

I was diagnosed with a celiac aneurysm a couple of years ago. It is about 1.2 cm in size so I am having it monitored. I have been told that surgery is an option if and when it grows to 1.4cm. From what I have been told by doctors and reading about the condition there isn't anything to do but have surgery when the aneurysm reaches a certain size. I welcome comments and thoughts from anyone else with this condition.

I have been told it has to reach 2 cm. Different doctors different ideas. I am wondering if it can stay the same size for many years

If so and surgery isn’t done are we at risk of rupture? Many questions. It is good to hear input
