[Intravascular coagulation associated with aortic aneurysm].
A consumption coagulopathy is presented, featuring a chronic and localized intravascular coagulation syndrome, with cutaneous manifestations exclusively, associated to an aortic aneurysm. The infrequency of this association is remarkable, being assumed as capital factors from the physiopathogenic side the parietal alteration and the blood stasis. They both determine the consumption of platelets adding further thromboplastic material that maintains the process.
