Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: First degree relatives of patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) have an increased risk of developing AAA; however, despite intensive investigation, the specific genetic factors involved in the development of the disease are still largely unknown. In twin studies the influence of genetic and environmental factors can be assessed by comparing concordance rates between monozygotic (MZ) and...
