  • Title: Acute traumatic disruption of the thoracic aorta.
    Author: Schepens MA, Van Cauwelaert PA, Gerard YE.
    Journal: Acta Chir Belg; 1989; 89(4):189-95. PubMed ID: 2678852.
    Abstract:
    Rapid diagnosis of traumatic aortic rupture is life saving. Initial findings are often misleading and multiple organ injuries add to the diagnostic complexity. Increasing awareness of the diagnosis and rapid performing of aortography together with improved surgical techniques will improve the outcome of these patients.
