Recommendations for Long-Term Management and Surveillance for PAUs

COR LOE RECOMMENDATIONS
2a C-LD 1. In patients with a PAU who have undergone aortic repair, surveillance imaging at intervals appropriate for the repair approach and location (see Section 6.5.6, “Surveillance After Aneurysm Repair”) is reasonable.13
2a C-LD 2. In patients with a PAU that is being managed medically, surveillance imaging with a CT is reasonable at 1 month after the diagnosis and, if stable, every 6 months for 2 years, and then at appropriate intervals thereafter (depending on patient age and PAU characteristics).1,4
