The discharge summaries for Minneapolis-St. Paul metropolitan area residents hospitalized during 1979-84 were reviewed for diagnoses of aortic aneurysms. Annual age-specific and age-adjusted sex-specific hospital discharge diagnosis rates were calculated for all aortic aneurysms, dissecting aortic aneurysms, thoracic aortic aneurysms (nondissecting), and abdominal aortic aneurysms (nondissecting). For each aortic aneurysm type, hospital discharge diagnosis rates were found to increase with age for both men and women. Abdominal aortic aneurysms were the most common type reported (age-adjusted annual rates for men varied between 40.6 and 49.3 per 100,000 population; for women, between 6.8 and 12.0 per 100,000 population). Men were noted to have higher rates for each aneurysm type. An increasing temporal trend was observed for all aortic aneurysms and abdominal aortic aneurysms among men. These findings are reviewed in light of recent data on mortality from aortic aneurysms in the United States.
回顾了1979年至1984年期间明尼阿波利斯-圣保罗大都市地区住院居民的出院小结，以确定主动脉瘤的诊断情况。计算了所有主动脉瘤、主动脉夹层动脉瘤、胸主动脉瘤（非夹层）和腹主动脉瘤（非夹层）的年度年龄特异性和年龄调整后的性别特异性医院出院诊断率。对于每种主动脉瘤类型，发现男性和女性的医院出院诊断率均随年龄增长而升高。腹主动脉瘤是报告的最常见类型（男性年龄调整后的年发病率在每10万人40.6至49.3之间；女性在每10万人6.8至12.0之间）。每种动脉瘤类型男性的发病率均较高。在男性中，观察到所有主动脉瘤和腹主动脉瘤的时间趋势呈上升趋势。根据美国最近关于主动脉瘤死亡率的数据对这些发现进行了综述。
