Aortic injury caused by a seat belt during a car accident is often referred as “seat-belt aorta”. We present a case of an 18-year-old woman, restrained back passenger involved in a vehicular collision, sustaining vertebral column and multiple rib fractures, mesenterium and colonic injury, and infrarenal aortic contusion with localized dissection and partial thrombosis. © 2018 Elsevier Inc.
