OBJECTIVES We review cases of pseudoaneurysm formation of the graft anastomosis sites following repair of type A acute aortic dissection by our original leak-proof technique for dissected aortic wall reinforcement with xenopericardium and gelatin-resorcinol-formalin (GRF) glue. CASES A 47-year-old male presented inferior acute myocardial infarction with bradycardia and cardiogenic shock 34 mo...
Emergency medicine dogma traditionally teaches that aortic dissection presents as tearing chest pain, radiating to the back. This case report describes a 55-year-old woman presenting with a left homonymous hemianopsia and resultant gait disturbance. Initial head computed tomography demonstrated a right parietal infarct, and chest radiograph demonstrated a markedly widened mediastinum. Acute Sta...
A Stanford Type A aortic dissection is a life-threatening surgical emergency that requires emergent surgery. The mortality after repair is high especially if the aortic dissection is complicated by visceral or peripheral malperfusion. We describe a case of a male patient who presented with an aortic dissection involving the ascending aorta, aortic arch, descending thoracic aorta, and the abdomi...
Nonsurgical bleeding after complex thoracic aortic procedures (such as aortic dissection and aortic aneurysm) is a great challenge for cardiac surgeons because of severe coagulopathy, exsanguinous bleeding, and inevitable death. Temporary mediastinal packing (with sponge) in such cases is the only life-saving technique with good result in most cases. Herein, we presented three cases with acute ...
The case of a 27-year-old Japanese woman with type A acute aortic dissection who had been diagnosed with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is presented. The patient also had aortic regurgitation due to non-infective endocarditis and systemic hypertension, and had been maintained on steroid therapy for 15 years. Her twin sister was also diagnosed with SLE. The patient was admitted to emergency ...
INTRODUCTION Acute aortic type III dissection is one of the most catastrophic events, with in-hospital mortality ranging between 10% and 12%. The majority of patients are treated medically, but complicated dissections, which represent 15% to 20% of cases, require surgical or thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR). For the best outcomes adequate blood transfusion support is required. Intere...
Ivana JOVANOVIĆ Clinic for Cardiology, Clinical Center of Serbia, Višegradska 26, 11000 Belgrade, Serbia [email protected] SUMMARY Introduction Pericardial effusion can be a consequence of a number of pathological conditions, and as such it can cause impaired left ventricular filling followed by decreased cardiac output and blood pressure. This kind of hemodynamic compromise and its consequ...
UNLABELLED We report a case of a 63-year-old man, with a previous history of hypertension and glucose intolerance associated troncular obesity that was emergently admitted to our Institution for evaluation of a severe, constant posterior chest pain which radiated anteriorly and dyspnoea with a suspected diagnosis of acute aortic dissection. A CT scan of thorax and abdomen demonstrated a dissect...
The timely diagnosis of aortic dissection is notoriously confounded by unreliable symptomatology. We present a previously unreported clinical sign: thoracic pain reproduced by abdominal palpation. Our case illustrates the dependence of traditional clinical features on the anatomical location of an aortic dissection and lends weight to the concept of aortic pain as being a dynamic product of int...
