  • Title: Case report. Aortic aneurysm presenting as psoas enlargement.
    Author: Vibhakar SD, Lee H, Petruschak M, Bellon EM.
    Journal: J Comput Assist Tomogr; 1981 Dec; 5(6):925-8. PubMed ID: 7320307.
    Abstract:
    We present a case of abdominal aortic aneurysm in which erosion and bleeding into the psoas muscle caused enlargement of that structure but remained confined within it until needle biopsy produced communication with the extraperitoneal space. This confirms the observation that separate compartmentalization of retrofascial and extraperitoneal spaces normally maintains.
