@camb40,
Welcome to Mayo Connect. Hopefully, some members around your age with experience will provide some feedback.
I think most surgeries come down to risk vs benefits. I think actual age is not as important as physical condition or other conditions you may have, which may put you at a higher risk for surgery.
Are you recently diagnosed? What are your providers telling you?

@roch So far, not too much. this new diagnosis is only 3 days old. I am sending my results to my Doc in CT to see what he has to offer. My doc here in Fla says another CT in 1 year. I got more info from CHAT gbt.
I want to thank those of you who answered.

@roch actually there was an increase in size this year to 4.1. He said nothing other than have a scan in 1 year. What I have learned about aneurysms I have learned by doing a little research .
