Abdominal aortic aneurysm and dissection after blunt trauma. 1987

Department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, University Central Hospital, Helsinki, Finland.

A case of abdominal aortic aneurysm and dissection after blunt trauma is presented. Unlike traumatic lesions of the thoracic aorta, this condition seems to be extremely rare, and may therefore deserve publication. Conservative surgery (resection of the dissected intimal flaps, closure of the aortotomy with a Blalock-type vascular suture) gave good early and late (6 years follow-up) results.
