Abstract

Abdominal aortic aneurysm is an important health problem due to its high mortality and morbidity rates. Most of the abdominal aortic aneurysms are asymptomatic until they rupture and may course with atypical clinical presentation after being ruptured. Patients with atypical symptoms may be difficult to diagnose correctly due to heavy workload of emergency services. In this case report a patient who presented to the intensive care unit with atypical symptoms and in whom ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm was detected using bedside abdominal ultrasonography.

Özet

Abdominal aort anevrizması yüksek mortalite ve morbidite oranları nedeni ile önemli bir sağlık sorunudur. Abdominal aort anevrizmalarının çoğu rüptüre oluncaya kadar asemptomatik seyreder ve rüptüre olduktan sonra da klinik atipik seyredebilir. Atipik semptomlarla acil servise başvuran hastaların acil servis yoğunluğu içinde doğru tanı almaları güç olabilir. Makalemizde atipik semptomlarla acil servise başvuran ve yatak başı yapılan batın ultrasonografisi sonucu rüptüre abdominal aorta anevrizması saptanan bir olgu sunulmuştur.
