Introduction:
Spontaneous abdominal aorta thrombosis is extremely rare with an unclear
incidence due to its infrequent occurrence. To this date, there is very
limited data on spontaneous abdominal aorta thrombosis in literature
(1). It is of clinical significance because it can lead to devastating
manifestations if it is not detected and treated in a timely manner.
Symptoms vary widely, ranging from being asymptomatic to a more
catastrophic presentation with organ ischemia (2). We present a case of
a patient with severe abdominal pain who was found to have ischemic
colitis secondary to spontaneous abdominal aorta thrombosis.
