Chronic-contained aortic aneurysm rupture with vertebral erosion is a rare entity with fatal complications. Multidetector computed tomography (CT) angiography is an important diagnostic method for the evaluation of the aortic aneurysms, their complications, and also the relationship between aneurysm and branching vessels and adjacent structures. We present the multidetector CT angiography findings of a 62-year-old patient with chronic-contained thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm rupture causing severe vertebral body erosion.

Collateral Formation

AbstractA 68-year-old man who had undergone descending thoracic aortic replacement was referred to our hospital with a thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm. During the original surgery, the Adamkiewicz artery was directly reconstructed. However, multidetector row computed tomography showed occlusion of the reconstructed artery at its orifice, with supply by a collateral vessel from the left lateral thoracic artery. With careful incision to avoid damage to the collateral vessel, no postoperative neurological deficit was observed.
