I too diagnosed at 1.5 cm. I have found general consensus just watch and wait until it reaches 2.0. Operate at 2.5cm. Many of these don't change at certain point and you may never have to do anything.

A familiar approach. Monitor and wait. The last conversation I had with my vascular surgeon concluded with “ have it scanned from time to time and it is unlikely that it will ever need repair”

Hi @perkman66,

May I ask how often your doctor orders tests to monitor the aneurysm? Did you have any symptoms?
