Case description

Aortic aneurysm most frequently occurs in the abdominal aorta, just above common iliac arteries and they are the reason for the aortic wall weakness. This is the reason for the big likelihood of rupture and massive internal bleeding, so the appropriate treatment is necessarry to be introduced. However surgeries of the aortic aneurysms can cause multiple complications such as ischaemia of the lower extremities or internal bleeding. The following video details a case of a patient who lost both bladder and bowel control because of ischaemic injury of the nerves. Medical Animation prepared by High Impact Graphics.
