Acquired Saccular Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm in a 10-Year-Old Child: A Case Report and Literature Review

An abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a confined dilatation involving the abdominal aorta. The incidence is rare and the etiology is unknown. Cases associated with conditions like Kawasaki, connective tissue, Behcet's diseases, and vasculitis are considered acquired. Our patient had a clinical criterion of Behcet's disease. Management involves a surgical approach. Endovascular intervention is not an option here, as the aneurysm is close to the bifurcation evident in computed tomography angiogram scans. Usually, they have good long-term outcomes. In our paper, we aim to describe the clinical presentation, management approach, and the outcome of our patient with an acquired AAA.
