Management of a rare case of intimal sarcoma of the aortic arch is reported, which was diagnosed unexpectedly after total arch replacement for pseudoaneurysm. The prognosis for this condition is poor, with death usually within a few months from diagnosis. The newly developed proton-beam radiation therapy was applied to treat a local recurrence of the sarcoma following surgery. Positron-emission tomography/computed tomography revealed complete remission of the lesion.
报道了一例主动脉弓内膜肉瘤的罕见病例,该病例在因假性动脉瘤进行全弓置换术后意外确诊。这种疾病的预后很差,通常在诊断后几个月内死亡。新开发的质子束放射治疗被用于治疗术后肉瘤的局部复发。正电子发射断层扫描/计算机断层扫描显示病变完全缓解。
