An inflammatory aneurysm is defined as a nonbacterial special type of atherosclerotic aneurysm. The macroscopic characteristics are: a porcelaneous appearance, excessive thickening of the aortic wall, and perianeurysmal adhesions. Chronic inflammatory infiltrations, which are localized in the adventitia, can be found via microscopy. Six of forty-three patients with abdominal aortic aneurysms were found to have an inflammatory aneurysm at operation. In a retrospective study, we examined the sonographic, computed tomographic and angiographic appearance of inflammatory aneurysms. Only with computed tomography can thickening of the aneurysmal wall be demonstrated; angiography does not have this capacity and can only find an inflammatory aneurysm in particular cases.
炎性动脉瘤被定义为一种非细菌性的特殊类型动脉粥样硬化性动脉瘤。其宏观特征为：瓷样外观、主动脉壁过度增厚以及动脉瘤周围粘连。通过显微镜检查可发现位于外膜的慢性炎性浸润。在43例腹主动脉瘤患者中，有6例在手术时被发现患有炎性动脉瘤。在一项回顾性研究中，我们检查了炎性动脉瘤的超声、计算机断层扫描和血管造影表现。只有计算机断层扫描能够显示动脉瘤壁增厚；血管造影没有这种能力，仅在特定情况下才能发现炎性动脉瘤。
