  • Title: Enlightenment from a small but rapidly evolving penetrating aortic ulcer.
    Author: Tan G, Tang W, Chen J.
    Journal: Int J Cardiovasc Imaging; 2016 Jul; 32(7):1143-4. PubMed ID: 26961076.
    Abstract:
    Penetrating aortic ulcer (PAU) is a pathologic type of acute aortic syndrome and usually locates in the descending aorta. The presentation, behavior and natural history of this disease process have not been clear. Here we report a case in which a rapidly evolving PAU in descending aorta needed aggressive percutaneous interventional treatment. The present case with its unique scenario might draw clinicians' attention on a "beyond the guidelines" issue.
