Primary aortic thrombosis: role of enhanced multislice CT demonstrated in three exceptional cases.
[heparin-induced thrombocytopenia]
Primary
aortic
thrombosis
remains
a
rare
entity
that
can
be
defined
as
clotting
of
the
vessel
without
any
obvious
atheromatous
lesion
.
Cancer
chemotherapy
,
cocaine
intake
,
essential
thrombocythemia
,
some
hypercoagulable
states
,
heparin-induced
thrombocytopenia
,
inflammatory
disease
of
the
digestive
tract
and
acute
pancreatitis
are
,
beside
some
cases
of
rather
unknown
etiology
,
the
causes
of
primary
aortic
thrombosis
.
Intravenous
contrast-enhanced
multislice
CT
,
which
is
widely
available
,
noninvasive
and
affordable
in
terms
of
cost
,
is
the
imaging
modality
of
choice
for
the
investigation
of
primary
aortic
thrombosis
and
the
assessment
of
potential
complications
.
Three
cases
due
to
chemotherapy
,
antiphospholipid
syndrome
and
acute
pancreatitis
are
reported
.
