ABSTRACT
The paper analyzes the results of computed tomography (CT) conducted in 54 patients with complicated abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA). Of them, 37 cases were diagnosed as having a complete rupture. There was dissection of the wall of the aneurysmally altered aorta and its slight tear in 11 and 6 cases, respectively. CT has been shown to allow one to diagnose complications due to AAA, their pattern, and site, to identify the factors that increase a risk for rupture, such as a slight tear of the inner layers of the wall of the aneurysmal abdominal aorta and its wall dissection. This all assists in solving a variety of the problems associated with treatment policy and may substantially reduce postoperative morbidity in this group of patients.
