Pseudoaneurysm is a rare condition in the region of the fibrous body between the mitral and aortic valve, the mitral-aortic intervalvular fibrosa (MAIVF), that has been reported as a sequela of endocarditis and surgical trauma. MAIVF rarely occurs on native aortic valve after infective endocarditis (IE). It is often fatal because of its rapid progress, high rates of rupture and recurrence, and ...
متن کاملLocalized Aortic Root Dissection Secondary to Contrast Agent Injection: Feasibility of Conservative Follow-up With Echocardiography
Introduction: Iatrogenic aortocoronary dissection (ACD) is a nightmare in interventional cardiology. Although ACD is rarely reported, the real-world prevalence is suspected of being higher due to unreported cases. The right coronary artery (RCA) ostium is involved in the majority of cases, and dissections are usually limited to the aortic sinus in half of the clinical presentat...
متن کاملUsefulness of transesophageal echocardiography in assessment of aortic dissection.
BACKGROUND The value of transesophageal echocardiography in the assessment of patients with aortic dissection was studied. METHODS AND RESULTS Group 1 (34 patients) represented all patients studied at our institution with this technique in whom aortic dissection was proven by aortography, surgery, or autopsy. Group 2 (27 patients) represented all patients studied with this technique at our in...
متن کاملInfective Endocarditis with Dissection of Sinus of Valsalva Mimicking Type A Aortic Dissection
A 52-year-old man with sudden onset of dyspnea was transferred to our hospital. Transthoracic echocardiography showed an intimal flap ranged from sinus of Valsalva to sinotubular junction, with heterogenous hypoechoic materials within the flap (Fig. 1), and it caused severe aortic regurgitation. Computed tomography scan showed linear dissection flap and aneurysmal dilatation in the sinus of Val...

showed pulmonary congestion and transthoracic echocardiography showed aortic valve regurgitation without ascending aortic dissection. Computed tomography (CT) demonstrated aortic dissection from the aortic arch to the bilateral common iliac arteries, but there was no evidence of dissection in the ascending aorta (Fig. 1A, B). A transesophageal echocardiography was performed and revealed a circu...
