Unusual Presentations of AAA
Many unusual presentations of AAA have been reported in the literature and include:
- Musculoskeletal complaints (thigh or groin pain)
- Bilateral testicular pain
- Unexplained inguinal pain-VERY well described
- Femoral neuropathy
- Abdominal pain and urge to deficate (and, NO, I am not making that one up)
One more note on the whole urge to deficate thing: any thing that leads to hemoperitoneum may cause this strange complaint (ruptured AAA, ruptured ectopic pregnancy).
