title: Surgical repair of localized dissecting aneurysm originating from the infrarenal abdominal aorta.
abstract: Aortic dissection commonly affects the thoracic aorta and is associated with high morbidity and mortality rates. Localized dissections originating from the infrarenal abdominal aorta are extremely rare. We report a rare case of localized dissecting aneurysm originating from the infrarenal abdominal aorta in a 62-year-old man. Open surgical repair was successfully performed without any complications.
