    Abstract:
    A 75-year-old woman was admitted to the emergency department with severe and sudden chest pain. Transthoracic echocardiogram showed an unusual case of aortic dissection Stanford Type A with complete circumferential detachment of the ascending aorta intima. An intussusception of the intima flap into the left ventricular outflow tract was also observed. This case presents a very rare surgical treatment involving root repair using tissue adhesives for a left ventricular intimal flap.
