Acute aortic dissection is a rare but devastating complication during cardiac catheterization. We present the case of an elderly female who incurred a Stanford Type A/DeBakey Type I acute aortic dissection extending into the arch vessels and descending aorta likely occurring during right coronary artery engagement for angioplasty. The patient was treated successfully by immediately sealing the entrance of the dissection via the placement of a stent and anti-impulse therapy. Follow-up computed tomography scan showed complete resolution of the dissection within one month.
急性主动脉夹层是心脏导管插入术中一种罕见但极具破坏性的并发症。我们报告了一例老年女性病例,该患者发生了斯坦福A型/德巴基I型急性主动脉夹层,累及弓部血管和降主动脉,可能发生在右冠状动脉介入血管成形术期间。通过立即放置支架封闭夹层入口并进行抗冲击治疗,该患者得到了成功治疗。随访计算机断层扫描显示,夹层在一个月内完全消退。
