Title: Acute retrograde type A intramural hematoma treated with an endovascular approach. Author: Vo AT, Le KM, Nguyen TT, Vu TT, Vu TT, Nguyen DH. Journal: Asian Cardiovasc Thorac Ann; 2018 May; 26(4):308-310. PubMed ID: 29587524. Abstract: A 71-year-old woman was admitted with sudden onset of severe chest pain. Computed tomography demonstrated acute type A intramural hematoma with an entry tear in the first part of the descending aorta. The patient refused an operation. Endovascular repair was performed to prevent conversion to a typical dissection of the ascending aorta. At the 1-year follow-up, computed tomography showed total resolution of the intramural hematoma.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
