Abstract
: Aortic floating thrombus (AFT) is a rare disease, which is often misdiagnosed as a tumor or another disease. Here, we report five cases of AFT, confirmed by computed tomography angiography (CTA). The patients’ laboratory biomarkers, clinical treatment, dynamic changes, and CTA features, including the AFT location, morphology, size, and aortic segment involvement, were retrospectively analyzed. CTA was the main imaging modality for detecting AFT, as it could depict lesions and determine the therapeutic effects accurately. Overall, the therapeutic strategy should be selected individually, depending on the patient’s physical health; conservative medication use is also recommended.
