Abstract

Aortoenteric fistula is a rare clinical entity. Early clinical and imaging diagnosis and prompt surgical intervention are crucial for patient survival. We present a case of aortoenteric fistula with direct contrast extravasation from the abdominal aorta into an ileal loop during Multi-Detector Computed Tomography scan.
