Omental hemorrhage is the result of a rupture of the omental vessels. Many causes have been identified to cause omental hemorrhage, which includes trauma, aneurysms, vasculitis, and neoplasms. Spontaneous omental hemorrhage is rare, and usually, patients present with a vague clinical manifestation. In this article, we present the case of a 62-year-old male patient who presented to the emergency department complaining of severe epigastric pain. He was diagnosed by enhanced computed tomography as having a great omental aneurysm and admitted to the surgical ward. The patient was treated conservatively with no apparent complications. Physicians should be made aware of the possibility of great omental bleeding even if none of the mentioned risk factors have been recognized to prevent the life-threatening complications that would follow this condition.
网膜出血是网膜血管破裂的结果。已确定许多原因可导致网膜出血,包括创伤、动脉瘤、血管炎和肿瘤。自发性网膜出血很少见,通常患者临床表现不明确。在本文中,我们报告了一例62岁男性患者,他因严重上腹部疼痛到急诊科就诊。经增强计算机断层扫描诊断为大网膜动脉瘤,并入住外科病房。该患者接受了保守治疗,无明显并发症。即使未发现上述任何危险因素,医生也应意识到大网膜出血的可能性,以预防由此引发的危及生命的并发症。
