How large can your ascending aorta get before it will burst?
Most Dr's recommend having surgery when your aorta gets to 5 cm. I am a very rare exception and didn't know I had a problem. When they caught my aneurism my aorta was at 7.2 cm. I have a brother and sister that also had surgery but they measured just over 5 cm.
If you rupture a blood vessel can you die?
Yes. It depends on the blood vessel and where it is, but yes a rupture to a blood vessel can kill you. A blood vessel is more likely to "pop" or rupture if it has an aneurysm, which is a local weakness where the blood vessel has stretched from the pressure of the blood. This is more likely to result in death if it is in a large blood vessel or in a critical location, such as the aorta or a vessel in the brain.
What is dilated aorta?
A dilated aorta is an aorta that is wider than normal. This is indicative of an aortic aneurysm, or a bulging of the aorta due to a weakening in the walls of the aorta. Aortic aneurysms are dangerous because they can cause the walls of the aorta to tear--aortic dissection--or rupture completely, leading to severe internal bleeding. Aortic aneurysms are repaired with surgery, but can sometimes be monitored to avoid or delay surgery. Because of the life-threatening risks associated with aortic aneurysm, medical consultation should be sought.
