Abstract
A patient survived thoracoabdominal penetrating injury with impalement of the descending thoracic aorta from a crossbow bolt. The precise extent and nature of the injury were determined preoperatively by computed tomography. The injury to the aorta had not been suspected clinically before the computed tomographic scan.Entities:
