title: Neonatal aortoiliac compression caused by a distended bladder.
abstract: Neonatal aortoiliac insufficiency caused by a distended urinary bladder is an unusual occurrence that can be difficult to distinguish from aortoiliac thrombosis. Real-time sonography can permit recognition of the abnormality, demonstration of the related pathophysiology, and exclusion of other causes of aortoiliac occlusion.
