| Summary: | Bleeding into Intra luminal thrombus, famously known as “hyper
attenuating crescent sign”, due to blood entering the ILT, has been
advocated to be associated with impending rupture of abdominal
aortic aneurysm (AAA). We present two cases of patients presenting
to our centre with a finding as described above. The importance of
these finding correlating with intra-operative findings and review
of relevant literatures will be highlighted. |
