AbstractAcute type A aortic dissection is a catastrophic situation, often accompanied by aortic regurgitation. A rarely described cause of aortic regurgitation, in this clinical scenario, is the prolapse of an intimal flap into the left ventricular outflow tract. We present here a case of acute type A aortic dissection with a circumferential intimal flap, prolapsing into the left ventricular outflow tract and causing massive aortic regurgitation.

AbstractA 75-year-old woman was admitted to the emergency department with severe and sudden chest pain. Transthoracic echocardiogram showed an unusual case of aortic dissection Stanford Type A with complete circumferential detachment of the ascending aorta intima. An intussusception of the intima flap into the left ventricular outflow tract was also observed. This case presents a very rare surgical treatment involving root repair using tissue adhesives for a left ventricular intimal flap.

We report the case of a presumed coronary-cameral fistula arising directly below the commissures of the noncoronary cusp (NCC) and left coronary cusp (LCC) of the pulmonary autograft, leading to left ventricular outflow tract pseudoaneurysm and late tamponade post Ross procedure.
