Abstract/Notes

A case is reported of a 55-yr-old man complaining of interscapular pain, lethargy, anorexia with weight loss and shallowness of breath following a recent traumatic blow to the abdomen. Radiographs revealed a marked and extensive aneurysm of the thoracic aorta. The importance of performing X-ray studies of the thoracic region is emphasized for all cases where histories of recent or past significant chest trauma is suspected and with older patients having hypertension and atherosclerotic heart disease.
