Aortic Aneurysm Eroding into the Spine

Aortic aneurysms are usually asymptomatic until catastrophic rupture occurs. Ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms classically present with acute back pain, shock, and a pulsatile abdominal mass. The natural history of some aortic aneurysms also includes a stage of contained rupture. This occurs when...

description Aortic aneurysms are usually asymptomatic until catastrophic rupture occurs. Ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms classically present with acute back pain, shock, and a pulsatile abdominal mass. The natural history of some aortic aneurysms also includes a stage of contained rupture. This occurs when extravasation of blood from the ruptured aneurysm is contained by surrounding tissues. Here, the authors report the case of a chronic contained abdominal aortic aneurysm rupture that resulted in erosion of the spine.
