Summary:
- Radiopaedia case ID: 50278
- Image ID: 27316781
- Image stack position: 154/182
- Plane projection: Axial
- Aux modality: C+ arterial phase
- Study description: Repeat CTA 11 hours later after transfer to tertiary center
- Study findings: There is now more left retroperitoneal stranding and fluid which is displacing the left kidney anteriorly suggesting ongoing slow rupture. In the left posterolateral wall of the lower lobe of the bilobed AAA, there is contrast now extending into the wall in keeping with progression of the acute intramural hematoma. This is at the site of the wall thickening and crescent sign on the initial CT. No active contrast blush is seen outside the aorta. Again, the kidneys appear well perfused.
- Modality: CT
- System: Vascular
- Findings: The non contrast phase demonstrates a bilobed suprarenal AAA extending to the bifurcation with some subtle peripheral hyperdensity in the lower lobe forming a crescent concerning for intramural hematoma. There is some mild left retroperitoneal stranding. The CTA demonstrates eccentrically thickened aortic wall in the lower lobe of the aneurysm. No focal contrast blush is seen outside the aorta. The kidneys appear well perfused.
