Abstract
Nineteen patients with histologically proved post-traumatic aneurysm of the thoracic aorta were reviewed. Only seven aneurysms were detected at the time of hospitalization for trauma. Eight of 12 patients with chronic aneurysms either became symptomatic or showed enlargment during a period of observation. Surgical excision was the recommended method of therapy.Entities:
