    A psoas mass after trauma may indicate a lumbar artery pseudoaneurysm. Recognizing lumbar artery anatomy on CT scans is crucial for diagnosing these post-traumatic masses.

    Area of Science:

    • Radiology
    • Vascular Surgery
    • Trauma Surgery

    Background:

    • Psoas masses can arise from various causes, including trauma.
    • Lumbar artery injuries are a potential complication of penetrating trauma to the flank or abdomen.

    Observation:

    • Computed tomography (CT) revealed a psoas mass in a patient with a history of penetrating trauma.
    • The mass was identified as a lumbar artery pseudoaneurysm with surrounding hematoma.

    Findings:

    • CT imaging is effective in identifying lumbar artery pseudoaneurysms.
    • The anatomic location of lumbar arteries on CT is key for diagnosis.

    Implications:

    • This case highlights the importance of considering pseudoaneurysm in the differential diagnosis of post-traumatic psoas masses.
