Abstract

Abdominal aortic aneurysm is defined as a dilatation of the abdominal aorta greater than 3cm. Its prevalence is between 1 and 1.5 cases per 100 people, constituting an important cause of morbidity and mortality. Rare in women, its frequency increases with age and its most frequent location is between the renal arteries and the aorto-iliac bifurcation. Approximately 5% of cases will involve the visceral branches.

It is a silent pathological process whose natural evolution is rupture, which often has a fatal outcome and whose diagnosis is part of the pathology that we will find in emergency radiology. The involvement of the radiologist and the preparation of an accurate diagnostic report, as soon as possible, is essential for decision-making by the team in charge of the patient's surgery.

Resumen

Definimos el aneurisma de aorta abdominal como la dilatación de la aorta abdominal mayor de 3cm. Su prevalencia se sitúa entre 1 y 1,5 casos por cada 100 personas, constituyendo una importante causa de morbimortalidad. Rara en mujeres, su frecuencia aumenta con la edad y su localización más frecuente es la alojada entre las arterias renales y la bifurcación aorto-ilíaca. Aproximadamente un 5% de los casos va a comprometer las ramas viscerales.

Se trata de un proceso patológico silencioso cuya evolución natural es la rotura, que muchas veces tiene un desenlace fatal y cuyo diagnóstico forma parte de la enfermedad que nos encontraremos en la radiología de Urgencias. La implicación del radiólogo y la elaboración de un informe diagnóstico preciso, lo antes posible, es fundamental para la toma de decisiones por parte del equipo que se encargue de la cirugía del paciente.
