Pulsation in the Stomach (Abdomen) - Aortic Aneurysm USMLE 1

Sometimes this pulsation can be caused by truly silly things like lifting your legs up above your abdomen or just eating a very large meal and being cold in your hands and legs at the same time. This is often connected to the vasoconstriction and diltataion.
The pressure increase in the largest artery is often to blame for this weird symptom. But sometimes a very dangeours condition called aortic aneurysm can be the cause for such a disease.
A friend of mine asked me a few years ago: "what's this pulsating thing in my stomach?" and she was really skinny and young so she underwent a CT scan and an ultrasound scan and it turned out to be that she's simply skinny and her pulsation of the aorta was visible and noticable even without an aneurysm.
I have illustrated where exactly thoracic aortic aneurysm and abdominal aortic aneurysm can be found and that's it. Hope you like the video...

    I was just lucky that when I went to local hospital, they sent me to the Specialist in Grand Rapids instead of sending me to the VA hospital in Iron Mountain. I don`t trust the VA in Iron Mountain.

    I'm puzzled by the abcence from your video, of the possible cause of Pulsation or palpatation in the stomache, caused by acid reflux. After many years since I last had regular bouts of this, It has returned , but is under control by the likes of antacid medication--again. Are the two causes linked ?

    Last 2 years i get hartpalpitations, skipping beat, congestion towards my head at both sides. The last one bothers me a lot. If i walk outside it feels i have to stop walking for a few seconds....like it gets black for my eyes or one can fainth... Then next day it can be totally gone ?!! I want to know what the cause is. I have a tool to messure my bloodpressure...that is normal or even outstanding! If i have those congestions i am very worried. I keep a diary. I have been different times by cardiologist. But he want me to take pills. An otherone who studied to read my registration thinks there is no reason for me to take bloodthinners at all! I have last 6 y hashimoto thyoroid suddenly. I had only 25 mcg tirosint and take now 13 mcg more. Before that times i had this problem, but also by taking more meds its the same. What is the best i can do???

    In May I had an Heart Attack and while at Hospital, Doctors gave me a CT scan and found out I also had AAA and it was so big that it could burst at any time. Sent by Ambulance 300 mile south to Grand Rapids. Mi where the specialists are. Had to have the Heart done first, which they did and sent me home with instruction of what I couldn`t do. Went back June 26th and had the AAA operation done, where they put 10 stents in. Now I have to go back the 10th of Jan. to have the aortic replaced. If I wouldn`t of had the heart attack, I wouldn`t known I had it. I know what it is from, Agent Orange from being in Vietnam.

    ❤ I have been exercising, through mind focus, involuntary muscles in my chest and belly and extremely fast breathing, for the last 30 years now without any trouble. In fact it's beneficial for blood flow in the body and having a healthy gut. I'm not a doctor to comment on the medical side of this activity but still I feel a controlled movement of involuntary muscles in our body maybe helpful for treating mechanical illnesses without medication or surgery.

    Hello dear JustaReject, I am not allowed to examine patients or give a diagnosis online. So this is not a replacement for an examination by a doctor in real life in any way... I urge you not to consider this to be medical advice in any way. I will answer this purely as a scientific and informative question... Yes some patients with hiatal hernia might describe pulsating sensation in their stomach. At least two patients described it that way to me. However, the symptoms I've described in the video and their combinations are about aortic aneurysms. Please understand that internet is not a replacement for an examination by your doctor, I urge you to see your doctor as soon as possible and don't worry and don't stress yourself too much. All of the things in this video are easy to diagnose and can be managed. Often these pulsations are caused by normal physiological changes in our bodies so do don't stress yourself or panic. :) And thank you for posting the first comment to our video 🥇

    oh dear... hang in there and be strong Some people are upset about how I didn't comfort them throughout this video and why I brought up some dangerous diseases. They don't understand that pulsation in the ahdomen can really be something like this. I'm so sorry to hear about your diagnosis. It breaks my heart... When I made this video I mostly had in mind that aneurysms can cause it and my idea was to get as many people as possible to visit their doctor and get it checked. I feel somewhat broken and lost, there were 3 colorectalcancer diagnoses already and your story as well story with carcinoid... I really take this emotionally... I should cover that and talk more about thrse issues as well and how people deal with it. At least we can recognize it and be supportive

I was on ultrasound and everything seems alright, I also did 4 blood tests and every single one is great, blood pressure, oxygen, even lungs X-ray and everything is alright but yet I had terrible chest pain (right side) 2 times and ended in hospital in 3am where they checked everything and still everything seems to be alright...also along with the pain in right chest my right arm would feel like it's burning from inside and we thought it's symptom for heart attack but yet it's nothing, even doctors don't know what to do...At this point I believe it could be that my nerves are damaged and that they are causing all the issues. I can only hope that I will stumble upon someone that has experience with this rare apparently "unknown" condition.

    I'm sorry but that's the worst video ever The majority of people searching about abdominal pulsations are stressed about it and u just mention aneurysm (Which had risk factors btw they don't come just like that ) and the possibility of thier rupture causing death. And u forget the obvious reason especially in young adults which is stress and anxiety due to the high sympathique nerves system in the abdominal area which major the pulse and lead to hyperesthesia Health anxiety is a probleme and those videos which pop op first on your search are making it worst
