None proven: None proven. Keeping blood pressure and cholestetol well controlled be it with healthy life style and/ or medications helps. Quitting smoking decreases the rate of growth of the aneurysm and the risk of rupture.

Absolutely not.: Aortic aneurysm is a serious problem which will lead to death if not managed appropriately. Smoking cessation and control of high blood pressure are the hallmarks of management for patients with small aortic aneurysms. If there are "homeopathic" or "natural remedies" for these, then great, but if your vascular surgeon has suggested repair, please follow his recommendation.

No.: Although medical management (control of blood pressure and stopping smoking) is part of the treatment, aortic aneurysms can only be treated with surgery when indicated.
