Intimal sarcoma of the descending aorta.
Primary intimal angiosarcoma of the aorta (i.e., mostly intraluminal sarcomas with evidence of endothelial differentiation) is extraordinarily rare. We report a case in which the diagnosis was accurately made using immunohistochemistry in an embolectomy specimen. The patient was a 78-year-old man with a two-month history of bilateral claudication. Doppler ultrasound proved an embolus in both po...
متن کاملEffect of Anastomotic Method on Intimal Hyperplasia in Rabbit Aorta
Purpose: The clinical advantages of end-to-end (ETE) anastomosis have not been clear despite its biomechanical advantage over end-to-side (ETS) anastomosis. We compared the histomorphometric features of intimal remodeling after ETE and ETS anastomosis in a rabbit aortic bypass model. Methods: Thirty-two bypass operations, 16 with ETS and 16 with ETE anastomoses, were performed using aortic allo...
متن کاملPrimary Intimal Sarcoma of Thoracic Aorta Presenting as Hypertensive Crisis.
UNLABELLED We report a 45-year-old woman who presented to our facility in a hypertensive crisis. Computed tomography (CT) revealed a thoracic aortic tumor, and tissues obtained via endovascular biopsy revealed undifferentiated sarcoma. A final diagnosis of intimal sarcoma was made by intra-operative pathological examination. Despite undergoing surgical resection followed by adjuvant chemotherap...
متن کاملUnexpected limited chronic dissection of the ascending aorta
We report a rare case of a limited chronic dissection of the ascending aorta that was accidentally discovered at operation performed for severe aortic stenosis and moderate to severe dilatation of the ascending aorta. Preoperative investigations such as transoesophageal echocardiography and cardiac catheterization missed the diagnosis of dissection. Intraoperative findings included a 3.5 cm ecc...
متن کاملIntimal sarcoma in the aortic arch partially obstructing the aorta with metastasis to the brain.
Primary tumors of the aorta are rare entities. We report the unusual manifestation of an aortic intimal sarcoma that presented as a brain metastasis in a 56-year-old, otherwise healthy woman. After the brain mass had been resected, multiple imaging methods revealed pseudocoarctation and the primary tumor in the aortic arch. To our knowledge, this is the first report of the diagnosis of an aorti...
