Massive hematuria due to ruptured iatrogenic aortic pseudoaneurysm: A case report

We report an interesting case of massive haematuria secondary to a rupture of a pseudoa- neurysm of the abdominal aorta below the renal vessels. A 65-year-old woman present- ed at our institution with a painful massive haematuria and anaemia. Two months before, she undergone a pelvic surgery complic...

description We report an interesting case of massive haematuria secondary to a rupture of a pseudoa- neurysm of the abdominal aorta below the renal vessels. A 65-year-old woman present- ed at our institution with a painful massive haematuria and anaemia. Two months before, she undergone a pelvic surgery complicated by an accidental injury of the right ureter sutured with a end-to-end anastomosis. An abdominal computed tomography (CT) scan with intravenous contrast showed a right-sided hydronephrosis with clots in the lumen of the right pelvis with a massive retroperitoneal hematoma due to a rupture of a iatrogenic pseudoaneurysm of the abdominal aorta below the origin of the renal arteries.
