Abstract
The successful management of patients with blunt abdominal trauma depends on early diagnosis and therapy. We present the case of a 64-year-old man involved in a fall with blunt abdominal trauma. Initial computed tomography (CT) showed a dissection of the infra renal aorta associated with aneurysmal dilation, comminuted compression fractures of the vertebral bodies of D2 and D3, sequelae of anterior compression fracture of the vertebral body of L2 and multiple rib fractures, simple and displaced without fail chest. Chronicity of the dissection was successfully obtained by only medical management, and after 6 days the patient was able to leave our department in good general condition. We present a case of acute of the infra- renal aorta and its successful management with conservative traumatic dissection treatment.
