Aortic dissection with concurrent abdominal aortic aneurysm: computed tomography diagnosis
Abstract
Thoracic aortic dissection in association with preexisting abdominal aortic aneurysm is rare. An illustrative case is presented in which an additional complication of contained aortic rupture and renal infarction occurred. Computed tomography was the primary diagnostic modality.
