damn; hopefully he is able to pull through...
I've heard of people with Marfan syndrome having problems with abdominal and thoracic aneurysms... dude is tall, but outside of that he didn't appear to have the body type of a marfan sufferer.... I wonder though.

The aorta is NOT in the stomach. It runs down from the heart, sends blood to the body. It's more along the backbone, not IN the stomach. lol.

It goes from the heart all the way down to abdomen dumbass

you should laugh at yourself. I do this for a living

RIP, them aneurysms are no joke, had a friend who was beautiful nurse and 27 with a full life ahead of her and passed from one within a few hours of getting one.

My oldest brother died of a brain aneurysm about 3 years ago, he was just 41:(

This nigga here.

the aorta is in the stomach

You do what for a living? You better not say the medical field. Who the FUCK told you that the aorta is in the stomach? Matter of fact, look at the diagram you posted. Show me where the aorta is located in the stomach.

Then you want to tell me about a triple A. I already mentioned triple A 2 hours before you made that bullshit statement (assuming this is what's happening - no facts yet)

Seems like he had a triple A. Beyond fucked up. R.I.P. bro. One of the funniest sitcoms, ever.

About to go binge watch Martin.

"I do this for a living"... man, please.

fool i am a FNP that started out working trauma ICU level 1. I have helped treat so many AAA's its not funny. And for the record the Aorta starts in the heart and goes into the abdomen before it branches off and becomes the femoral arteries.

Nigga you are dumb as fuck if you dont know that or cannot see it from the diagram.

When you assess a patient for an AAA and you listen for the "bruit" and feel for the "thrill" you palpate and auscultate the abdomen, not the back

and if you look hard enough, you can find my credentials on here, I have posted them multiple times in the past

He is currently on life support and is not expected to make it through the day.

Earlier, Ford’s friend, Anthony Anderson, tweeted that Ford had died — but at the time, he was still alive.

If he has a "stomach" aneurysm, it can only be a AAA. What other artery is in the abdomen? You are exposing your lack of knowledge with your dumb ass statements. This nigga said the aorta is not in the abdomen. Nigga, you would get kicked out of any hospital for that type of blasphemy

a weakness in the wall of the artery. They are considered life threatening when they are larger than 4 cm. at that time the pt is to lie flat and relax in ICU until the cardio-thoracic surgeon can place a endovascular stent graft around the weakened and bulging area
