Abstract
This is the sixth report in the English literature of survival following repair of a supraceliac aortic traumatic aneurysm secondary to penetrating injury. Symptoms, (12 months after a stab wound of the flank), led to discovery of an aneurysm 15 cm in diameter, originating from the left side of the supraceliac aorta. Repair was accomplished with a temporary thoracoabdominal bypass shunt graft of woven Dacron.
