Aortitis can be an initial presentation of many diseases, but most often include large cell vasculitis.
We present a case of a 53 year old female who presented with a myriad of symptoms including abdominal pain, nausea, fever, and headaches. CT scan of the chest showed an inflamed aorta with an initial concern for a large cell vasculitis, but found later to be from her underlying acute myeloid leukemia (AML).
DISCUSSION/CONCLUSION: Our case emphasizes the importance of aortitis being the initial presentation of a multitude of diseases including malignancy. It remains important, especially for rheumatologists, to consider blood cancers when presented with aortitis.
BACKGROUND/INTRODUCTION: Aortitis can be an initial presentation of many diseases, but most often include large cell vasculitis. We describe a case of aoritis being the initial presentation of AML.

我们报告一例53岁女性，她出现了多种症状，包括腹痛、恶心、发热和头痛。胸部CT扫描显示主动脉发炎，最初怀疑是大细胞血管炎，但后来发现是由其潜在的急性髓系白血病（AML）引起的。
讨论/结论：我们的病例强调了主动脉炎作为包括恶性肿瘤在内的多种疾病首发表现的重要性。当出现主动脉炎时，尤其是对风湿病学家来说，考虑血液系统癌症仍然很重要。
背景/引言：主动脉炎可能是多种疾病的首发表现，但最常见的包括大细胞血管炎。我们描述了一例主动脉炎作为AML首发表现的病例。
