Aortic hematoma is a serious condition that arises from the aorta and can lead to complications such as fatal rupture or dissection. Primary Aortic Ulcer (PAU) refers to a localized hematoma that results from atherosclerotic degeneration of the aortic wall. This condition often manifests with chest pain and requires prompt imaging for diagnosis, typically via CT scan or MRI. Management strategies may include medical therapy, surgical intervention, or endovascular approaches, depending on the size and location of the hematoma. Timely treatment is essential to prevent life-threatening consequences.
