Abstract:
Seven cases of inflammatory aneurysm of the abdominal aorta were reviewed. The authors discuss the different diagnostic modalities (ESR, CT-scan, IVU) and some peroperative technical details in the surgical approach to this pathology in order to lessen blood loss and prevent aorto-enteric fistulous complications.
