abstract="The occurrence of aortic dissections after deceleration trauma is commonplace but aortic injuries after blunt trauma are extremely rare complications. We report a case of an acute aortic rupture accompanied by a type B dissection after a skiing accident with blunt thoracic trauma and renal contusion. The leading symptom was the onset of hematuria 12 h later. The computed tomography (CT) angiography permitted the exact diagnosis and the patient was transferred for acute thoracic endovascular aortic repair. This regimen resulted in the patient achieving a stable condition and potentially harmful complications could be avoided.<p /> <p>Language: de</p>",
