List of Diseases

A

Abdominal aortic aneurysm

An Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA) is a balloon-like bulge in the abdominal section of the aorta, the large artery that carries blood from the heart to the rest of the body. It can grow over time and may rupture, causing life-threatening internal bleeding. Symptoms are often minimal, making early detection crucial.
