Aortic occlusion occurs when the main blood vessel, the aorta, is partially or completely blocked. This obstruction disrupts the normal blood flow, potentially causing severe complications. Causes may include atherosclerosis, blood clots, or trauma. Symptoms vary based on the affected segment but may involve pain, numbness, or organ dysfunction. Diagnosis involves imaging studies like CT scans. Treatment options range from medication to surgical interventions, such as angioplasty or bypass surgery, depending on the severity and location of the occlusion. Prompt medical attention is crucial to mitigate complications and preserve vital blood circulation, emphasizing the importance of early detection and intervention in managing aortic occlusion.
