[Urological symptoms in aneurysms of the abdominal aorta and its branches]

The clinical symptomatology of the sclerotic aneurysms of the abdominal aorta and its large branches is described, especially are described symptoms which are erroneously referred to the urinary tract. In our own clinical material of 47 patients with an aneurysm of the abdominal aorta 11 patients (23%) were primarily transferred to the urological treatment. The typical clinical picture, especially characteristic radiological changes are characterised in detail. It is referred to the early diagnosis and thus to the improvement of the prognosis of the aneurysms of the aorta.
