Traumatic abdominal aortic false aneurysm
Updates to Study Attributes
Retroperitoneal haematoma in the upper abdomen surrounds the abdominal aortaalso involves left perirenal space with thickening of pararenal fascia. A
3.5 mm outpouching from the left lateral wall of the upper abdominal aorta
just inferior to the level of the coeliac axis ( L1 level ) is located short
distance anterior to a tiny arterial branch. This is the epicentre of the
upper abdominal haematoma and may represent small false aneurysm either from
traumatic transection or at the site of avulsion of a small aortic branch.
No intimal dissection flap is identified.
A large volume pneumoperitoneum is also present.
