Summary:

       The authors present a case of an uncommon based thrombus of the abdominal aorta, which partly obturated its lumen and caused repeated embolization of the left pelvic circulation and left lower extremity. Even detailed modern diagnostic methods (angiography, CT, NMR) were unable to rule out before surgery anotheretiology of the obturating process in the aorta. Only removal of the thrombus from the abdominal aorta and subsequent histological examination elucidated the diagnosis and led to final cure.

        Key words: thrombus - aorta - embolism - CT - NMR - aortotomy - thrombus extraction
