We present the case of a 50-year-old male, with no cardiovascular risk factors other than smoking, that presented with acute chest pain, revealed to be an acute myocardial infarction with a large thrombus located in the ascending aorta. Such findings are rare in a patient with no other afflictions, such as atherosclerosis, aortic aneurysm, or aortic wall injury (surgical or traumatic). There is no specific pathway regarding the management of ascending aorta thrombus in such a patient; therapeutic options include surgical, interventional, or medical methods. Surgical thrombectomy was performed in this case, considering the high risk of systemic embolism and stroke and the hemodynamic stability of the patient.
我们报告了一例 50 岁男性病例,除吸烟外无其他心血管危险因素,表现为急性胸痛,被诊断为急性心肌梗死,升主动脉内有大血栓。在没有其他疾病(如动脉粥样硬化、主动脉瘤或主动脉壁损伤(手术或创伤))的患者中,这种发现很少见。对于这样的患者,升主动脉血栓的管理没有特定的途径;治疗选择包括手术、介入或药物方法。考虑到全身性栓塞和中风的高风险以及患者的血流动力学稳定性,在这种情况下进行了手术血栓切除术。
