  • Title: Contained rupture of the suprarenal aorta.
    Author: Nora JD, Hollier LH.
    Journal: J Vasc Surg; 1987 Apr; 5(4):651-4. PubMed ID: 3560360.
    Abstract:
    A contained rupture of the aorta is a rare event; however, this has been recognized with increased frequency in the abdominal aorta. There have previously been two reports of the containment of rupture of the suprarenal aorta. We report two additional cases of contained rupture of the suprarenal aorta, one caused by a penetrating atherosclerotic ulcer, the other from a ruptured aneurysm. Surgical treatment was successful in both patients.
