We present a case of an elderly man who presents with acute onset chest pain and was found to have an acute ruptured Type A aortic dissection that has a "saddle pulmonary embolism"锕峣ke appearance on computed tomography (CT) imaging. We also describe the clinical, laboratory, and ...
Aortic dissection, sometimes referred to as a dissecting aneurysm, is most commonly initiated by a circumferential tear in the intima, allowing blood flow to spill between the medial layers of the artery wall, which could propagate proximally or distally. ...
Aortic dissection (see the image below) is defined as separation of the layers within the aortic wall. Tears in the intimal layer result in the propagation of dissection (proximally or distally) secondary to blood entering the intima-media space. Mortality is still high despite advances in diagn...

The aim was to compare computed tomography (CT) features in acute and chronic aortic dissections (AADs and CADs) and determine if a certain combination of imaging features was reliably predictive of the acute versus chronic nature of disease in individual patients. Consecutive patients with aortic...

Our works are related to aortic dissections which are a medical emergency and can quickly lead to death. In this paper, we want to retrieve in CT images the false and the true lumens which are aortic dissection features. Our aim is to provide a 3D view of the lumens that we can diffic...

Pain: The onset of acute aortic dissection is sudden, and greater than 90% of patients experience sudden severe tearing or knife like pain in the anterior chest, back or the abdomen, and the pain can be transferred along the aorta towards the upper or lower abdomen. Sudden Death: When the...
