    Author: Roche KJ, Genieser NB, Berger DK, Ambrosino MM.
    Journal: Pediatr Radiol; 1995 Nov; 25 Suppl 1():S247-8. PubMed ID: 8577545.
    Abstract:
    Traumatic injury to the descending thoracic and abdominal aorta is uncommon in children and is usually secondary to recognized blunt trauma. Child abuse has not been previously reported as a cause. We report a 3-year-old boy who was kicked in the abdomen by his father. A resulting pseudoaneurysm was successfully resected.
