Description: Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm is often called a "silent killer" because there are usually no obvious symptoms of the disease. Three out of four aneurysms show no symptoms at the time they are diagnosed. Dr. Ronald L. Dalman focuses on the importance of knowing who is most at risk, how AAA is diagnosed, and how it is treated before it becomes a fatal condition.
