摘要：
Retropharyngeal hematoma is a rare entity that has various etiologies. Anticoagulation is believed to be the most common cause. Aortic aneurysm leak was reported as a cause of this disease only once. We believe that our case is the second case of retropharyngeal hematoma caused by a leaking aortic aneurysm. A case discussion and management is presented in this article.
