RESUMEN

Primary aortic mural thrombus (PAMT) is defined as a thrombus attached to the aortic wall in the absence of any atherosclerotic or aneurysmal disease in the aorta and a cardiac source of embolus. There is no consensus on the ideal treatment of PAMT. There are a few reports of thromboaspiration of aortic thrombus in literature. The objective of this article is to report a new endovascular approach of abdominal aortic mural thrombus. The use of Penumbra Thromboaspiration System is a feasible procedure to treat abdominal aortic thrombus and may be an option for patients unsuitable for open repair or conservative treatment.
