Grossly punched-out lesions in the aorto-iliac region can be histologically classified as false, pseudo-false, or disguised aneurysm. International angiology : a journal of the International Union of Angiology, 1997, Volume: 16, Issue:3 Aneurysms are morphologically classified as true or false based on the nature of their walls. True aneurysms are composed of all or parts of layers of the vessel. False aneurysms are the result of rupture and their walls have only fibrous tissues. The orifice of false aneurysms is narrow relative to the aneurysmal diameter and thus they are grossly or angiographically referred to as punched-out lesions. Hence false aneurysms present with punched-out lesions, but in reverse, are all of punched-out lesions false aneurysms? We experienced some cases of punched-out lesions which histologically contained traces of elastin, and the purpose of this report was to histologically investigate grossly punched-out lesions. We examined 671 elderly autopsy cases, and a total of 21 grossly punched-out lesions in the aorto-iliac region were selected. They were histologically classified as false, "pseudo-false", or "disguised" aneurysm. False aneurysms were found in 3 patients (0.45%), and were histologically mycotic. A total of 5 "pseudo-false" aneurysms were found in 3 patients (0.45%). They histologically contained traces of elastin, and thus they were categorised in true aneurysms. A total of 13 "disguised" aneurysms were found in 6 patients (0.89%). They were true fusiform aneurysms with an eccentric thrombus, on which a fibrin-cap formed a narrow orifice. Partial sections are insufficient for diagnosis; cross-sections are necessary. To the best of our knowledge, there have been no reports of "pseudo-false" or "disguised" aneurysms in the aorto-iliac region.
