Abstract
Five patients with suprarenal aortic thrombosis were diagnosed and treated over the past 6 years. Attempts were made to establish aggressive medical and surgical treatment promptly. Three patients died in spite of immediate therapeutic measures. Two patients survived operation but one died 9 months later from myocardial infarction. The syndrome of high acute aortic occlusion is considered; attention is focused towards immediate diagnosis and treatment.
