A rare infrarenal pseudoaneurysm of the abdominal aorta occurred 15 years after blunt trauma. Surgical repair with graft interposition was successful, highlighting a delayed complication of abdominal aortic injury.

Area of Science:

  • Vascular Surgery
  • Trauma Surgery
  • Aortic Aneurysm Research

Background:

  • Posttraumatic pseudoaneurysms of the abdominal aorta are exceptionally rare vascular lesions.
  • Most reported cases involve the suprarenal aorta, with infrarenal occurrences being even less common.

Observation:

  • A 62-year-old male presented with back pain, 15 years after sustaining blunt abdominal trauma.
  • Imaging revealed an infrarenal abdominal aortic pseudoaneurysm, a delayed consequence of the initial injury.

Findings:

  • The case represents one of only six reported instances of infrarenal posttraumatic abdominal aortic pseudoaneurysm.
  • Surgical management involved resection of the pseudoaneurysm and Dacron graft interposition.

Implications:

  • This case underscores the potential for delayed vascular complications years after significant abdominal trauma.
  • Successful surgical intervention demonstrates the viability of reconstructive techniques for managing these rare aortic pseudoaneurysms.
