huge dissected ascending aorta associated with pseudo aneurysm and aortic coarctation feridoun
Authors
abstract
we report a unique case of chronic dissection of the ascending aorta complicated with huge and thrombotic pseudoaneurysm in a patient with coarctation of descending aorta. preoperative investigations such as transesophageal echocardiography (tee) confirmed the diagnosis of dissection. intraoperative findings included a12 cm eccentric bulge of the right lateral side of dilated the ascending aorta filled with the clot and a circular shaped intimal tear communicating with an extended hematoma and dissection of the media layer. the rarity of the report is an association of the chronic dissection with huge pseudoaneurysm and coarctation. the patient underwent staged repair of an aneurysm and coarctation and had an uneventful postoperative recovery period.

Introduction: Patients with primary acute aortic dissection are at higher risk of complications, including increasing aortic aneurysm diameter, aortic rupture, aortic pseudo aneurysm, and recurrent aortic dissection. Case presentation We presented the case of a recurrent pseudo aneurysm and rupture of the aorta in the distal a...

Aortic sinus aneurysms are uncommon; association with pseudocoarctation has not been previously recognized. Morgan Jones and Langley (1949) in a classic paper reviewed fortythree autopsy proven cases, added four new ones, and divided them into congenital and acquired types: of the total, twenty-five were congenital. Venning (1951) reported three additional cases and Falholt and Thomsen (1953) i...
full textOne-stage surgical approach to coarctation of the aorta and ascending aortic aneurysm.
BACKGROUND Aortic coarctation in adults is sometimes associated with concomitant cardiovascular pathologies which require intervention. The optimal operative approach for such patients remains unsettled. An extra-anatomic aortic bypass from the ascending aorta to the descending aorta via median sternotomy allows simultaneous performance of repair of complex aortic coarctation and concomitant ca...
full textSingle coronary artery, and dissecting aneurysm of ascending aorta following resection of coarctation of aorta.
A 28-year-old kitchen hand was admitted in September 1969 for exploration of a suspected aortic aneurysm. He gave a history of two attacks of chest pain associated with breathlessness for which he was hospitalized in late 1968. At that time he was noted to have a systolic murmur suggestive of aortic stenosis and had signs of heart failure. He ran a low-grade pyrexia and had a persistently raise...

Aneurysm of the descending aorta associated with CoA is an extremely rare congenital abnormality. In this report, we present a 16 months old female patient in whom cardiac catheterization had been performed which had revealed a segment of coarctation and saccular aneurysm in the descending aorta. The patient was operated and a 3x2 centimeters aneurysm which embraces the coarcted segment in desc...
