Deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection, as well as peripheral arterial atherosclerosis, are frequently diagnosed vascular disorders. In this paper, the authors present the case of coexistence of common pathologies of the cardiovascular system in a patient with pain in the right lower limb. The presented images provide a didactically valuable overview of serious cardiovascular pathologies. This article highlights the value of computed tomography angiography in diagnosis of cardiovascular life-threatening conditions, especially as a result of proper medical interview and physical examination.
