Spontaneous rupture of the aorta due to ruptured atherosclerotic plaque is extremely rare. Despite the high prevalence of atherosclerosis, only four cases have been reported to have been identified and treated successfully; the remainder were diagnosed postmortem. We report a surviving case of pericardial tamponade due to highly localised aortic atherosclerotic plaque rupture.
主动脉因动脉粥样硬化斑块破裂而自发破裂极为罕见。尽管动脉粥样硬化的患病率很高,但仅有4例报告称已确诊并成功治疗;其余病例均为尸检时确诊。我们报告了1例因高度局限性主动脉粥样硬化斑块破裂导致心包填塞而存活的病例。
