Abstract EN

Stab injury of the thoracic aorta is a rare condition with high mortality rate.

Patients must be evaluated carefully, and the diagnosis usually should be confirmed by radiological modalities.

In this case, we report a 37-year-old man presented with a penetrating stab injury to the upper back and the thoracic aorta, and the diagnostic role of computed tomography is discussed.
