A member asked:

29 yo female with two aneurysms in my splenic artery. short of breath and pain in upper left abdominal area. chance of rupture? elective splenectomy?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Aneurysms: I believe your vascular surgeon is best qualified to evaluate and advise you as there may be no need to operate on these aneurysms unless they reach a certain size. I wouldn't expect shortness of breath to be related to the aneurysms unless they're leaking blood, but the left upper abdominal discomfort is of concern and the vascular surgeon's opinion about this is very important.
