Loeys-Dietz syndrome is a rare autosomal dominant connective tissue disorder notable for rapidly progressive vascular aneurysmal disease and craniofacial defects. Patients are at an increased risk for aneurysm rupture and dissection at younger ages compared to other aneurysmal syndromes. Early surgical intervention is important for prevention of ruptures and/or dissection. The coronary arterial tree is mostly involved as a result of postoperative complications of an aortic root repair. This fact has been sparsely reported. We report a unique case of LDS2 presenting with chest pain that was later diagnosed as a pseudoaneurysm as a result of a right coronary artery graft dehiscence.
洛伊-迪茨综合征是一种罕见的常染色体显性遗传性结缔组织疾病,以快速进展的血管动脉瘤性疾病和颅面缺陷为显著特征。与其他动脉瘤综合征相比,患者在较年轻时发生动脉瘤破裂和夹层的风险更高。早期手术干预对于预防破裂和/或夹层很重要。由于主动脉根部修复的术后并发症,冠状动脉树大多会受累。这一情况鲜有报道。我们报告了一例独特的LDS2病例,该患者以胸痛就诊,后来被诊断为右冠状动脉移植口裂开导致的假性动脉瘤。
