Abstract
Cirsoid aneurysm, an uncommon abnormal either congenital or acquired arteriovenous communication, is described. As massive life-threatening bleeding can be a consequence, diagnosis is very important. Earlier, angiography was the only imaging method available for visualizing vascular lesions and recent developments in imaging techniques have made diagnostic imaging of cirsoid aneurysms possible using ultrasonography, color flow mapping, magnetic resonance imaging and magnetic resonance angiography. In this report, a patient with intrapelvic cirsoid aneurysm posthysterectomy who died 8 h after she had been kicked in the abdomen is described and the results obtained by various imaging techniques are discussed.
