Abstract

A chronic contained rupture of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) has been a rare event. Recently, we experienced operative treatment of two cases of chronic contained rupture of AAA with retroperitoneal hematoma one caused by rupture of anatherosclerotic saccular typed AAA, another by penetrating perforation of anatherosclerotic fusiform typed AAA. These two cases fulfilled the criteria for chronic contained rupture of an AAA proposed by Jones and associates. Surgical outcome of these patients were uneventful and they are enjoying normal lives.
