  • Title: [Thrombosis of the ascending aorta--a rare cause for recurrent arterial embolism].
    Author: Baumgartner J, Leupi F.
    Journal: Helv Chir Acta; 1993 Sep; 60(1-2):163-6. PubMed ID: 8226047.
    Abstract:
    A 41-year-old man suffered 3 episodes of transitory left leg ischemia before he was admitted with right brachial artery embolism. The diagnostic evaluation (i/v DSA, CT Scan) revealed a mass in the ascending aorta which was removed under hypothermic cardiocirculatory arrest. Histologically the mass was shown to be a thrombus adjacent to a arteriosclerotic plaque.
