Internal Iliac Artery Aneurysm Presenting as Severe ConstipationA Case ReportDepartment of Medicine, Winthrop-University Hospital, Mineola, New York
Department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, Winthrop-University Hospital, Mineola, New York This is a case report of an elderly man who presented with a history of increasing constipation. He was found to have a leaking aneurysm of his right internal iliac artery. The patient underwent repair of the aneurysm with subsequent relief of his constipation. Although genitourinary obstruction is a well-known symptom of internal iliac aneurysms, constipation is a very unusual manifestation of this disorder.
