Abstract
Even if the rupture is the most common cause of death of patients with Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA) and the risk increases with the presence and the size of IntraLuminal Thrombosis (ILT), there are cases in which death occurs for other causes. The Authors present an autoptic report of considerable size AAA with ILT in a patient who died by heart failure due to CAD thrombotic and ischemic heart disease. A protective role of approved in the literature and the role of products resulting from the thrombotic formation could explain the death event.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
