Ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms (rAAA) are associated with high mortality rates and require prompt diagnosis with subsequent intervention. CT scan is considered the gold standard for diagnosis, however, in the acute setting ultrasound may be a reasonable diagnostic test for certain patients. We report a case that demonstrates the utility of point-of-care ultrasound (PoCUS) in diagnosing rAAA for a patient in extremis. Also, we provide a brief review of literature for the diagnosis of rAAA with ultrasound.
