Leaking abdominal aortic aneurysm mimicking ureteric colic: So rare but so real in Middle East

Abstract

Aortic aneurysms are very rare in Middle East unlike Europe and America. Therefore, this pathology is very likely to be missed in acute presentation to the Emergency Medicine Department. We present a case of leaking abdominal aortic aneurysm mimicking right ureteric colic, which was missed in the initial assessment.
