Abstract:
A 61-year-old man was found to have an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) during follow-up for ischemic heart disease. On admission, ultrasonograms and computed tomograms revealed a thickened aortic wall surrounded by a soft tissue (so-called mantle). The obstructive right anterior brain artery and stenotic right internal carotid artery were also detected by angiography. Coronary angiography demonstrated multiple stenotic lesions of the coronary arteries. The excised AAA was replaced with an prosthetic graft. The mobilization of the adjacent viscera was kept as little as possible in order to prevent injury to them. We reported a case of “inflammatory” abdominal aneurysm associated with various atherosclerotic lesions.
