ABSTRACT
Five patients with aneurysms occuring in the abdominal aorta have been studied by means of arteriographic and echographic examinations. Suggestive clinical symptoms (pulsatile abdominal mass) were present in two cases, while the remaining three patients had doubtful symptomatology. Echography achieved and accurate diagnosis in all cases. Aortograms were useful in four cases, but a definite diagnosis was not obtained in the fifth case due to the presence of aortic fibrosis. Advantages of echographic procedure as a simple, useful, non-surgical and lower-cost method are mentioned.
