A case report detailing the clinical presentation and imaging findings of a large abdominal aortic aneurysm complicated by a peripheral thrombus and renal artery stenosis.
The most common location of abdominal aortic aneurysms is the infrarenal portion of the aorta including its bifurcation and extending to the iliac arteries. 1 To avoid rupture, which has nearly 90% mortality, early diagnosis and surgery are essential. Acute aortic occlusion, which commonly is secondary to saddle embolus or atherosclerotic thrombosis, has tremendous morbidity and mortality. Angiographic evaluation is very essential for patients with asymptomatic abdominal aortic aneurysms of 4.0-5.5 cm, and surgical intervention is required for rapidly growing or larger aneurysms.
