| Description |
Inflammatory conditions of the arterial wall unassociated with a specific infectious agent may lead to the development ofan aneurysm. Isolated cases have been reported with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), Behcets disease, relapsing polychondritis, and polyarteritis. Most ofthe aneurysms associated with arteritis are proximal, and less than one-third are fusiform. Prognosis is poor, with mortality in approximately two-thirds of the reported cases. |
