Abstract
An abdominal aortic or iliac artery rupture typically presents with central abdominal and back pain, collapse and shock. In this article, we present a very rare case of massive bilateral hemothorax associated with ruptured iliac artery aneurysm. While ruptured iliac artery aneurysm was treated with an emergent endovascular intervention, bilateral tube thoracostomy was performed for hemothorax. The patient was discharged from hospital at the 10th postoperative day in a good condition. At six-months of follow-up, tomographic scan was normal with a reduction in the aneurysm size.
Özet
Abdominal aort veya iliyak arter rüptürleri tipik olarak santral karın ve sırt ağrısı, çökme ve şok ile seyreder. Bu yazıda rüptüre iliyak arter anevrizma ile ilişkili nadir bir masif iki taraflı hemotoraks olgusu sunuldu. Rüptüre iliyak arter anevrizması acil endovasküler girişim ile tedavi edilirken, hemotoraksa yönelik iki taraflı tüp torakostomi uygulandı. Hasta işlem sonrası 10. gün iyi bir durumda hastaneden taburcu edildi. Altıncı ayda yapılan kontrol tomografisi normal olup, anevrizma boyutunda küçülme gözlendi.
