Is there a difference between a thoracic aneurysm and a thoracic aortic aneurysm?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: A thoracic aneurysm is an aneurysm of the thoracic aorta....More importantly...Whether the aneurysm involves the ascending or descending or entire thoracic aorta makes some difference in treatment.
