  • Title: Giant coronary aneurysm associated with aortic mucoid medionecrosis.
    Author: De Caro R, Bordignon D, Crestani C, Parenti A.
    Journal: Int J Legal Med; 1991 Mar; 104(2):111-5. PubMed ID: 2054303.
    Abstract:
    A case of sudden death due to rupture of a dissecting aneurysm of the ascending aorta in a 38-year-old man is presented. The patient had a clinical history of severe hypertension. The autopsy also revealed the presence of a voluminous aneurysm of the right coronary artery and a solitary multilocular cyst of the right kidney. It is thought that a prodromal influenza-like syndrome and the renal lesion could have played a role in causing the vascular pathology.
