1. Severe aneurysmal dilatation of the suprarenal abdominal aorta measuring up to 7.9 x 6.4 cm with extensive right eccentric mural thrombus and adjacent periaortic fat stranding.

2. Aneurysmal dilatation of the infrarenal abdominal aorta measuring up to 3.8 x 4.0 cm. Aneurysmal dilatation of the ascending thoracic aorta measuring up to 5.7 x 6.0 cm.
