A case report focused on imaging aspects of an aorto-enteric fistula (AEF) in a 39-year-old patient with a recent diagnosis of classic Hodgkin Lymphoma with multiple enlarged retroperitoneal lymph nodes. AEF is a pathologic communication between the aortic lumen and any portion of the gastrointestinal tract. Without prompt intervention, the associated mortality approaches 100%. Early clinical suspicion is essential for a successful outcome and the role of imaging is fundamental to diagnose it. Owing to its widespread availability, short acquisition time, and high resolution, CT with intravenous contrast has become the first-line modality for imaging evaluation of suspected aorto-enteric fistula.
