This report describes 2 cases of spontaneous aortic dissecting hematoma in young Border Collie and Border Collie crossbred dogs. Histology was performed in one of the cases involving an unusual splitting of the elastin present within the wall of the aorta, consistent with elastin dysplasia as described in Marfan syndrome in humans. The first case involved a young purebred Border Collie that died suddenly and the second case involved a Border Collie crossbred dog that died after a 1-month history of seizures. Gross lesions included pericardial tamponade with dissection of the ascending aorta in the former case and thoracic cavity hemorrhage, mediastinal hematoma, and aortic dissection in the latter. Histologic lesions in the case of the Border Collie crossbred dog included a dissecting hematoma of the ascending aorta with elastin dysplasia and right axillary arterial intimal proliferation.

Mediastinal Hematoma

Ruptured chronic type B aortic dissection is conventionally repaired surgically; however, the mortality is high. We report successful use of the candy-plug technique for ruptured chronic type B aortic dissection. A 62-year-old man with ruptured type IIIb dissection was transferred to our hospital as an emergency. Computed tomography angiography showed a dissecting aorta with a patent false lumen, ruptured proximal descending aorta, distal aortic arch entry, and mediastinal hematoma. Debranching endovascular repair with the candy-plug technique achieved occlusion of the false lumen of the ruptured aortic dissection. The patient recovered uneventfully and the false lumen gradually decreased with no endoleak.

Intimal Intussusception

Intimo-intimal intussusception is an unusual clinical form of aortic dissection resulting from circumferential detachment of the intima. Clinical presentation varies according to the level of detached intima in the aorta. We present a case of acute type A dissection with prominent prolapse of the circumferential detachment intimal flap into the left ventricular cavity extended to the apex.
