Type A aortic dissection after nonaortic cardiac surgery.
BACKGROUND Cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass is associated with mechanical manipulation of the ascending aorta that occasionally leads to type A aortic dissection (AAD). METHODS AND RESULTS One hundred three patients with surgical repair for AAD following nonaortic cardiac surgery were identified. With the use of logistic regression modeling, coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG), e...
متن کاملA perfect storm: type A aortic dissection and previous cardiac surgery.
A cute type A aortic dissection (AAD) is a lethal disease. The overall mortality rate—even when diagnosed and treated in a timely fashion with emergent surgical interven-tion—exceeds 20%. 1 This fact alone serves as a constant reminder that this disease represents a formidable challenge to all cardiovascular professionals who encounter AAD. Cardiovascular surgeons maintain great respect for ope...
متن کاملAcute Type A Dissection and Acute Inferior MI Complicating Aortic Coarctation: A Case Report
Aortic coarctation is a rare but dangerous condition. Presence of aortic dissection in addition to coarctation is significantly rarer and more life-threatening. Here, we present a case of acute inferior MI due to aortic dissection complicating a native aortic coarctation. A 17-year-old boy was admitted to our emergency department due to severe chest pain and loss of consciousness. His ele...
متن کاملIatrogenic type A aortic dissection during cardiac surgery.
We reviewed our experience of intraoperative type A aortic dissection during cardiovascular surgery. From January 1998 to May 2009, intraoperative aortic dissection occurred in 10 of 3421 cardiac surgical patients (M:F=4:6, 62.4+/-8.0 years). Preoperative diagnoses were valvular heart disease (n=6), ischemic heart disease (n=2), combined disease (n=1) and aortic aneurysm (n=1). All underwent to...
متن کاملHemorrhagic cardiac tamponade complicated by acute type A aortic dissection
RATIONALE Acute type A aortic dissection (AAAD) is a potentially fatal clinical crisis. Hemorrhagic cardiac tamponade due to the rupture of an ascending aortic root dissection is extremely dangerous and often lacks timely clinical evidence. We report sudden death in a patient diagnosed with AAAD and in whom critical care ultrasound highly indicated hemorrhagic cardiac tamponade. PRESENTING CO...
