  • Title: Combined Cardiovascular Syphilis and Type A Acute Aortic Dissection.
    Author: Roberts WC, Roberts CS.
    Journal: Am J Cardiol; 2022 Apr 01; 168():159-162. PubMed ID: 35115135.
    Abstract:
    The occurrence of acute aortic dissection with the initiating tear in the ascending aorta superimposed on cardiovascular syphilis is an exceedingly rare occurrence. Such was the case, however, in a recently seen patient who presented with typical features of acute dissection (type A). Operative repair yielded the entire ascending aorta to examine both grossly and histologically and classic features of both conditions were observed.
