  • Title: Traumatic intrapericardial ascending aortic rupture: CT appearance.
    Author: Cressman EN, Winer-Muram HT, Farber J.
    Journal: J Thorac Imaging; 2004 Jan; 19(1):45-7. PubMed ID: 14712132.
    Abstract:
    Ascending aortic injury is seen in only 5% of patients who survive long enough to undergo imaging. Emergent aortography is commonly used to confirm and define suspected thoracic rupture. We describe a case of ascending aortic rupture at the root of the aorta following blunt trauma diagnosed with CT imaging.
