Evaluation of intravenous digital subtraction angiography (IV DSA) in patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm was performed by obtaining catheter aortograms immediately before DSA studies in ten patients. Diagnostic images were obtained in nine of ten digital subtraction examinations. Although repeat injections were necessary in six DSA and three conventional aortography cases for adequate imaging of both cephalad and caudal extension of the aneurysm, average contrast dose was 53 cc (62 cc in standard catheter studies). Renal artery stenosis was diagnosed by DSA in two of three vessels, multiple renal arteries were demonstrated by both modalities in two cases. Digital subtraction and conventional aortographic findings were proved at surgery. Intravenous DSA was shown to be useful in the preoperative evaluation of patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm.
