A case of a 73-year-old man is discussed who underwent an operation due to a suspected rupture of an aneurysm of the abdominal aorta. A ruptured fist-sized aneurysm of an artery of the greater omentum was found. A dilated arterial segment was linked by a normally sized segment to the aneurysm. Fibromuscular dysplasia is considered to be the base of these vascular changes. In addition there is a light fibromuscular dysplasia of the splenic artery.
