6x6 mm Distal aortic stenosis diagnosis
Aortic Aneurysms | Last Active: Nov 10, 2025 | Replies (3)Comment receiving replies
@JustinMcClanahan Hello Justin! No I have not heard from my cardio vascular surgeon who had ordered the test!
Thinking positively, I am assuming it is nothing to be concerned about! Or he would have called!
I tried researching on different site! There are many results for aortic stenosis but not many for DISTAL ABDOMINAL aortic stenosis!
I had 4 cardiac arrests, 20” clot in leg, coma etc.. and have 6 stents in heart and one in carotid artery, hence the word stenosis in both, MRI and CT scan results became concerning to us!
I will wait till he calls or till my next appointment!
Thank you for caring!

@manisham Are you kidding me? Your going to wait till the doctor calls you????? Or wait till your next appointment? ..........Most doctors, particularly specialists are very busy and in spite of what you think, their patients welfare is usually NOT TOP OF MIND when results come back. They expect you to get in line and call their nurse or other intermediary. Not all, but most that I have dealt with. Over a year ago I was diagnosed with a double ascending aorta & root aneurysm. After results came back from CatS. I had studied enough to ask questions about my numbers, meaning the cm of each of the aneurysms. The doctor could not find the results and showed his disdain by putting "Dan asks a lot of questions" on my patient portal. Not a word about the burning question in my troubled mind. I hope that I am the exception! But, I would get on the phone immediately and call the doctors office for at least a summary statement of what amounts to his opinion. Otherwise, what are 2nd opinions for? Good Luck!
