Abstract
|
|
|
A rare syphilitic abdominal aortic aneurysm associated with pulmonary embolism and deep vein throbosis is reported. We have experienced a huge infrarenal syphilitic abdominal aortic aneurysm which caused venous compression at left common iliac
vein. A
29 year-old female was admitted via emergency room due to several episodes of hemoptysis. Clinical evaluation for this patient revealed a couple of small ill-defined mass densities on the both lung filed and abominal aortic anuerysm. Emergency
wedge
resections of left upper and lower lobes were performed because of a massive hemoptysis. Pathologic diagnosis showed pulmonary infarction. 20 days after thoracotomy an elective operation on abdominal aortic anuerysm was successfully carried out
and
post
operative pathology finding showed syphilitic aortitis.
