Περίληψη:
Acute thrombosis of an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a rare and often devastating complication with high morbidity and mortality. In some cases, however, it may be associated with a silent course without signs of acute limb ischemia. The aim of this report is to describe an unusual case of acute thrombosis of AAA without signs of acute limb ischemia. Preoperative anxiety, stress, and phobia for surgery may be factors predisposing to acute thrombosis of an AAA.
