“…Diagnosis of AAO is sometimes difficult, in particular when the patient presents with bilateral lower limb paralysis, 254 and delay is associated with poor outcome. 255 Most publications consist of relatively small case series, and in a recent paper the authors concluded that outcome had not improved over time. 256…”

“…It is also an uncommon cause of peripheral arterial embolization.8 This syndrome can be mistaken for other neurologic disorders and is usually missed in up to 50% of cases presenting with paraplegia. 9 Clinical presentations is sudden and characterized by pain in the lower extremities, paralysis, and lividity. In addition, it can lead to ischemic complications including gastrointestinal malperfusion, renal infarction, and paralysis secondary to spinal cord ischemia…”

Acute aortic thrombosis as a presenting feature of COVID-19: case report and review of literature

et al. 2021

Acute aortic thrombosis is an uncommon vascular emergency that can present with neurologic symptoms like acute paraplegia due to spinal cord ischemia. It frequently causes mortality unless appropriate diagnosis is followed immediately by proper management. Individuals with COVID-19 have coagulopathy with hyper inflammatory response which predisposes to both venous and arterial thrombotic events, especially in severe patients. We report a rare case of 63-year-old COVID-19 patient presenting as acute flaccid paraplegia with hematuria secondary to acute extensive aortic thrombus. CT scan showed bilateral COVID-19 pneumonia inspite of absence of respiratory symptoms. All patients with thrombotic events should be investigated for COVID-19 pneumonia as patients may not have typical respiratory symptoms.

A case study on thrombolytic treatment of acute aortic saddle embolism using bilateral femoral arterial puncture catheter

et al. 2020

Although peripheral arterial embolism is a common vascular disease, abdominal aortic saddle embolism (ASE) is rare. However, ASE is considered to be quite severe. A rapid and accurate diagnosis followed by timely and appropriate medical intervention is the key to minimize the risk of severe complications and reduce the risk of mortality. We report the case of an 84-year-old female patient who was diagnosed with acute ASE. She was successfully treated using thrombolytic therapy through a bilateral femoral arterial puncture catheter. Our report aims at raising awareness of this potentially fatal disease, highlighting the importance of rapid diagnosis and timely treatment, and exploring the possibility of endovascular treatment for ASE in the future.
