Abdominal aortic aneurysm has been described as a rare condition touching 1% of the population over the age of 50 years with a high percentage of mortality. Aneurysms progress in size, causing deadly complications such as ruptures and fistulas. Computed tomography angiography is considered the gold standard imaging exam for the evaluation of abdominal aortic aneurysms and their complications. We report the case of an elderly patient admitted to the emergency room due to recurrent gastrointestinal bleeding. The computed tomography imaging findings were in favor of an abdominal aortic aneurysm complicated with a primary aortoduodenal fistula.
腹主动脉瘤被描述为一种罕见疾病,影响着50岁以上1%的人群,死亡率很高。动脉瘤会逐渐增大,引发诸如破裂和瘘管等致命并发症。计算机断层扫描血管造影术被认为是评估腹主动脉瘤及其并发症的金标准影像学检查。我们报告了一例因反复胃肠道出血而入住急诊室的老年患者。计算机断层扫描成像结果显示为腹主动脉瘤合并原发性主动脉十二指肠瘘。
