Is aortic aneurysms and asending valve the same?

An aortic aneurysm can happen as the name indicates anywhere along the aorta, the aorta “ascends” as it leaves the heart, bends and then “descends “, if the aneurysm is on the short “ascending side” then its called ascending. You also mentioned “valve” on the title but I assume that was a typo

The doctor stated the Ascending aorta is mildly dated. . They explained it as the valves are not closing completely. I’m so confused and scared.
