Abstract
The authors present one patient with ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm (rAAA) who complicate with small bowel infarction and coproperitoneum; and two patients who suffered from rAAA and simultaneous colon infarction, successfully treated by one-stage operation. They comment upon this rare pathology and analyze hypothetical causes, considering the scanty literature about it.
