The treatment for penetrating aortic ulcers is surgery. Atherosclerosis forms plaques in the aortic intima, and penetrating ulcers form when the plaques break down.
Aortic penetrating ulcers are not well treated with medication, and generally require surgical treatment, including traditional surgical treatment and endoluminal repair of the aorta. If left untreated, aortic coarctation or pseudoaneurysm may occur, and if ruptured, it may be life-threatening, and the earlier the treatment is given, the better the prognosis will be.
