1 Acute aortic occlusion in a child secondary to lap-belt injury treated with thromboendarterectomy and primary repair  Charles A. West, MD, Lester W. Johnson, MD, Linda Doucet, RN, Mitali Shah, MD, Imtiaz Khan, MD, Maureen Heldmann, MD  Journal of Vascular Surgery  Volume 54, Issue 2, Pages (August 2011) DOI: /j.jvs Copyright © 2011 Society for Vascular Surgery Terms and Conditions

2 Fig 1 A computed tomography angiography demonstrates on the saggital image an L3-level acute aortic occlusion beneath the inferior mesenteric artery (IMA) origin, arrows, and an adjacent coronal image of the abdominal aorta.

3 Fig 2 This is the original illustration from the first description of acute aortic occlusion secondary to seat belt injury by Dajee,8 which demonstrates a circumferential tear of the intima with dissection and prolapse of the inner aortic layers, resulting in complete occlusion of the lumen.
