Resumen
Introducción

Los aneurismas aórticos son una entidad excepcional en la edad pediátrica y, habitualmente, se presentan asociados a otras enfermedades.

Caso clínico

Paciente de sexo femenino, de 8 años de edad, que acudió al hospital con una historia de dolor abdominal y la presencia de una masa hipogástrica pulsátil que correspondía a un aneurisma aórtico gigante.

Conclusión

Ante la excepcionalidad de la patología, tanto el diagnóstico como un tratamiento quirúrgico precoz fueron las claves para la completa recuperación de la paciente. La elección correcta de la técnica quirúrgica y los materiales usados probablemente permitieron el crecimiento sin la aparición de problemas derivados de laprótesis.

Palabras clave:

Introduction

Abdominal aortic aneurysms are very rare in children. They are usually associated with well-known medical conditions but some are idiopathic.

Case report

An 8-year-old girl who was admitted to hospital with abdominal pain and a large abdominal pulsatile mass corresponding to a large aortic aneurysm.

Conclusion

An accurate diagnosis and a prompt surgical treatment led to a quick and successful recovery. A right choice of both, surgical technique and prosthetic material, probably let a free-complication growth-up of this patient.
