To stimulate further research, this review summarizes studies linking liver fibrosis with the risk of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA). AAA is defined as a permanently weakened and dilated aorta, which develops due to inflammation tunica media, activation renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, immune system activation, coagulation disorders. Typically asymptomatic, often incidentally detected through imaging done for symptoms or part screening programs. follows variable course has mortality rate strongly dependent on age sex. Risk factors include age, male sex, ethnicity, family history AAA, lifestyle habits, arterial hypertension, dyslipidemia, comorbid atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Conversely, individuals type 2 diabetes, female certain ethnicities are at reduced AAA. Liver fibrosis, resulting from chronic diseases owing varying etiologies, increasingly recognized potential contributor development. Evidence indicates that metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic disease (MASLD) other conditions may intensify inflammatory pathways shared thereby potentially exacerbating progression. This specifically examines epidemiology associated link between fibrosis. It also highlights pathomechanisms, including systemic inflammation, oxidative stress, extracellular matrix remodeling, contribute both conditions. Although these findings underscore significant overlaps in profiles, additional research needed clarify whether truly confer protection against if association influenced by confounding variables. Ultimately, addressing open questions will help guide targeted therapeutic interventions identification novel biomarkers predict
