Fig. 2 Patient with inflammatory infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm. A, CT scan shows typical appearance of inflammatory aneurysm with thickened anterior and lateral walls exterior to line of calcification in media and ureteral entrapment but thin or absent posterior wall. B, Excretory urogram shows mild ureteral obstruction and hydronephrosis.

Fig. 3 Patient with inflammatory thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm. A, CT scan showing typical periaortic and retroperitoneal inflammatory reaction as absent or less posteriorly. B, CT scan of lower thorax does not show mild inflammatory changes in aorta seen at operation.

Fig. 4 Patient with separate inflammatory aneurysms of descending thoracic aorta and infrarenal abdominal aorta. A, Drawing and aortogram made before operation showing location and extent of aneurysm. B, Drawing and aortogram made after operation showing grafts in place and functioning.

Fig. 7 A, CT scan made 10 days after operation shows thick aortic wall surrounding graft and ureteral entrapment. B, Scan made 5 months after operation shows resolution of inflammatory process and freedom of ureters.
