What does atheromatous change of the aorta without sign of aneurysm mean?

Atheromatous change of the aorta refers to the buildup of fatty deposits, or atherosclerosis, within the aortic wall. This condition can lead to the narrowing of the aorta but does not indicate the presence of an aneurysm, which is a localized dilation or bulging of the vessel. The absence of an aneurysm suggests that while there is arterial plaque buildup, the aorta's structure remains intact without any significant outpouching. Monitoring and lifestyle changes may be recommended to manage atherosclerosis and prevent further cardiovascular issues.
