  • Title: Aortic dissection without intimal tear: case report and findings on transesophageal echocardiography.
    Author: Eichelberger JP.
    Journal: J Am Soc Echocardiogr; 1994; 7(1):82-6. PubMed ID: 8155339.
    Abstract:
    Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) relies on the presence of an intimal flap for diagnosing aortic dissection; however, a small percentage of cases of dissection can occur without apparent intimal disruption. This case reviews unusual echocardiographic features of aortic dissection and previously undescribed echocardiographic findings in a patient with aortic dissection without intimal flap.
