RESUMO
A 58-year-old man was admitted with pulsatile abdominal mass with fever and dull pain. Abdominal aortic aneurysm with left hydronephrosis due to obstruction of the left ureter was diagnosed by CT scanning. Aortic valve replacement was performed ten years previously for aortic regurgitation and recently his cardiac function deteriorated. On the 5th day after admission he suddenly suffered from hemorrhagic shock with massive melena. Emergency laparotomy was performed and ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm was observed penetrating to the sigmoid colon with perianeurysmal abscess. The abdominal aorta was excluded and closed using two-layer sutures just below the renal artery, and bilateral common iliac arteries were also closed. The aneurysmal sac and the sigmoid colon were removed as a whole, and colostomy was made according to Hartmann's procedure. Permanent right axillo-bifemoral bypass graftiny was made to avoid infectious complications of the vascular graft. A successful vascular reconstruction was done without any complication of graft infection, however he died of cardiac failure due to dilated cardiomyopathy after 4 months postoperatively. We reported a successfully treated abdominal aortic aneurysm extending to the sigmoid colon with hemorrhagic schok.
