Abstract
- We have recently experienced a rare case of abdominal aortic injury caused by shearing force falling from 8 meter height in upright position. The patient was 43 year old and sustained Ll, L2, L5, compression fractures and both distal tibia and fibula comminuted fractures involving ankle joints. 2 years and 2 months later, marked stenosis of the distal abdominal aorta was found together with clinical manifestations of ischemia of both legs. Aorto-femoral bypass on both sides has completely relieved the symptoms.
