We reported a rare case of spontaneous frank rupture of a small (4 mm) penetrating aortic ulcer in the ascending aorta resulted in catastrophic bleeding. The ulcer only created a pinhole wound in the adventitia without saccular aneurysms, intramural hematomas, or aortic dissections. Notably, the wound could be directly closed because the aortic wall was intact only 5 mm away from the bleeding site. The postoperative course was uneventful, and the patient was discharged on the 11th postoperative day. After 8 months, follow-up computed tomography showed no abnormality of the aortic wall at the repair site.

Although an ascending aortic thrombus is a rare condition, it can cause serious complications of thromboembolism. Here we present a rare case of a patient who was hospitalized due to ileal arteries embolization caused by emboli from a giant thrombus in the ascending aorta. After 10 days anti-coagulation therapy, we performed a surgery to replace the ascending aorta containing the strip organized thrombus with a synthetic graft. During two years of postoperative follow-up, no recurrence of aortic thrombosis was found. Although the exact cause of this thrombus remains unclear, we believe that it is important to perform a surgery as soon as the presence of an ascending aortic thrombus is confirmed, which could help preventing the major recurrent embolic events.

Different Levels

The ectopic tissue of the thyroid gland along the descent of thyroglossal duct is a rare congenital aberration with or without the presence of normal thyroid gland. Single or dual ectopic thyroid has been reported. Three ectopic focuses at different locations are extremely rare. We present a rare case report of twenty years old female who presented with swelling over the anterior aspect of the neck mimicking thyroglossal cyst. Up on imaging evaluation ectopic thyroid at three different levels were diagnosed by computed tomography (CT) neck. Hence surgery was avoided and patient was managed with thyroxine supplement and follow up.

Bone marrow aspiration and trephine biopsy are considered safe procedures. Some serious but rare adverse events directly attributable to these procedures have been related in a few reports in the literature. We report a rare case of ascending aortic injury following a sternal trephine biopsy.

Lethal Event

Traumatic aortic injuries can be a lethal event. Almost 88% of patients with traumatic aortic injuries die within the first hour and only 2% survive long enough to develop a chronic aneurysm. Injury to the ascending aorta, whether acute or chronic, are typically managed with surgery, and those in the descending aorta, are managed conservatively or in some cases with stents. We present a rare case of a 53-year old gentleman with intra-aortic migration of a left clavicular prosthesis used for restoration of the left shoulder girdle.
