Is there a surgery to fix an aortic aneurysm?

Yes: There is open repair and the less invasive endovascular technique. Talk to a vascular surgeon for the pros and cons of each, and to see which one you are a candidate for.

Yes: The approach (open surgery vs. Endovascular) depends on the extent of the aneurysm (anatomy), age and health of the patient. A ct angiogram is usually obtained to evaluate the anatomy and help make a decision.
