Abstract
A 59-year-old man who under surveillance for abdominal aortic aneurysm and peripheral artery disease, was investigated with a CT Angiogram aorta. The CT scan showed an abdominal aortic aneurysm reaching 6.2cm with significant thrombus burden, occluded coeliac artery, occluded left iliac artery, calcified stenosis of the right renal artery and features of chronic renal infarct in the right upper pole. Technetium-99m dimercaptosuccinic acid (Tc-99m DMSA) renal scan was done to document the extent of the infarction and for differential function of the kidneys.
期刊介绍：
Primarily being a medical journal, JPMA publishes scholarly research focusing on the various fields in the areas of health and medical education. It publishes original research describing recent advances in health particularly clinical studies, clinical trials, assessments of pathogens of diagnostic importance, medical genetics and epidemiological studies. Review articles highlighting importance of various issues in the domain of public health, drug research and medical education are also accepted. As a leading journal of South Asia, JPMA remains cognizant of the recent advances in the rapidly growing fields of biomedical sciences, it invites and encourages scholars to write short reviews and invited editorials on the emerging issues. We particularly aim to promote health standards of developing countries by encouraging manuscript submissions on issues affecting the public health and health delivery services.
