Sažetak
The common iliac artery aneurysms are rare and usually present in patients with abdominal aortic aneurysms. They are most commonly asymptomatic and the clinical symptoms are non-specific, including abdominal pain, genitourinary symptoms, back pain and sciatica. The rupture usually causes haemodynamic instability and carries a high mortality rate. We describe an elderly patient presenting with abdominal pain and fever who had a pulsating mass in the lower right quadrant of the abdomen, diagnosed via point-of-care ultrasound. The definite diagnosis was made with computed tomography and the patient was urgently transferred to the surgery department.
