Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a critical disease and is often asymptomatic. It can cause diminished lumbar blood flow. Impaired blood flow in the lumbar arteries is significantly associated with decreased diffusion in lumbar disks and may lead to progressive disk damage. AAA can clinically mimic upper lumbar disk herniation. Disk herniation is rarely seen in the upper lumbar region since the upper part of the lumbar spine is less mobile than the lower region. To the best of our knowledge, no reports have presented concomitant AAA and L2-L3 disk herniation. We describe a 48-year-old man treated for symptomatic AAA followed by L2-L3 disk herniation at an interval of 3 months.
