Rupture of aortic aneurysms into the gut.
Rupture of an aortic aneurysm into the gut is uncommon. The duodenum is most often involved, stomach and jejunum being next in order of frequency.

متن کاملRosiglitazone reduces the development and rupture of experimental aortic aneurysms.
BACKGROUND Development and rupture of aortic aneurysms involve a combination of complex biological processes. Rosiglitazone, a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma agonist, has been shown to have a broad spectrum of effects in vivo. The hypothesis that rosiglitazone would reduce aneurysm expansion or rupture was tested in the angiotensin II (Ang II)-induced hypercholesterolemic mous...
