Abstract
We report a case of iliac artery occlusion caused by abdominal blunt trauma. An 80-year-old man had suffered abdominal contusion injury by a traffic accident. CT angiography revealed occlusion of the right common and external iliac artery. Emergency Femoro-femoral bypass using a ePTFE graft was performed 5 hours after the episode. He recovered soon. If patients showed signs and symptoms of acute arterial occlusion after blunt abdominal trauma, we should consider the traumatic arterial occlusion and treat the patients appropriately.
