A Case of Acute Aorto Iliac Thombosis with Predominant Neurologic Manifestations as Rare Presentation
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Medical Case Reports - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 7
Abstract
Aortic saddle thrombosis is not an exotic condition and given the trend towards catheter-based endovascular treatments which offer the advantages of faster recovery, this is definitely no longer a deadly disease. However in rare instances it can present without its classical triad of symptoms which can lead to difficulty in recognizing this pathology. These cases can be potentially catastrophic. Here we present a case of acute aorto-iliac occlusive disease which masqueraded itself as a spinal infarct, making the clinicians go for a spin. Keywords: Aortoiliac thrombosis, Neurological manifestations, Contrast CT
