Successful treatment of atypical type A aortic dissection after heart transplantation

Abstract We report a case of a 58-year-old female with Stanford type A aortic dissection sparring the donor aorta 2 years after heart transplantation. Lumbar spine magnetic resonance examination for low back pain discovered the aortic dissection which was confirmed by following computed tomography angiography. The patient received surgical treatment including total arc replacement and thoracic aortic endovascular repair and recovered well.

Perioperative Bleeding

AbstractSurgical treatment of Type-A acute aortic dissection is associated with high mortality and morbidity. One of the reasons is perioperative bleeding, which may lead to worse outcomes. We present a case of successful treatment of a patient with 18-litre perioperative blood loss in DeBakey Type-I acute aortic dissection with drug-induced hypocoagulation and malperfusion of a lower extremity.
