Abstract
Pseudoaneurysm of the abdominal aorta may occur as a consequence of blunt abdominal trauma. Immediate surgery should be performed, once the diagnosis of aortic disruption is made because it is potentially lethal injury. We present a case of a young man, who underwent successful surgical treatment of abdominal aortic pseudoaneurysm following blunt trauma.
