Gastrointestinal (GI) bleed often brings the patient to the emergency medical service with great anxiety. Known common causes of GI bleed include ulcers, varices, Mallory-Weiss among others. All causes of GI bleed should be considered however unusual during the evaluation. Aortoenteric fistula (AEF) is one of the unusual causes of GI bleed, which has to be considered especially in patients with a history of abdominal surgery in general and aortic surgery in particular.
胃肠道出血常使患者极度焦虑地前往紧急医疗服务机构。已知胃肠道出血的常见原因包括溃疡、静脉曲张、马洛里-魏斯综合征等。然而,在评估过程中,应考虑所有导致胃肠道出血的原因,无论其多么不常见。主动脉肠瘘(AEF)是胃肠道出血的不常见原因之一,尤其在有腹部手术史,特别是主动脉手术史的患者中必须予以考虑。
