Aortic Dissection By Hari Bhatt

Definition Aortic dissection is an acute event where blood enters the aortic wall through a tear of the intima followed by extravasation of blood into the media. Currently believed the process begins with an intramural hematoma

etiology Degenerative Hypertension Pregnancy Skeletal (scoliosis) Connective tissue (Marfan’s) Mycotic aneurysm Takayasu (giant cell) arteritis Aortic laceration/coarctation

Classification DeBakey: I –ascending aorta --> arch +/- descending aorta II –ascending aorta only III –descending aorta --> thoracic aorta

Classification (cont.) More commonly used is the Stanford classification, better linked to clinical outcome Type A: involves the ascending aorta acute, 70% mortality Type B: not involving the ascending aorta, chronic tx. conservatively

Schematic A/B

Type B Dissection a) Increased soft tissue shadow beyond the aortic knuckle, b) one year before

Type A dissection A medical emergency Imaging may include –Chest radiograph –TOE best accuracy, in skilled hands, however more invasive –MRI- ok if pt. stable, otherwise not used in acute scenario, good at showing early intramural hematoma –CT- disadvantage restricted to single axial plane, motion artifacts of the aortic root

CT/MRI side by side

MRI of Type A dissection

Which imaging study works?? In a large and well constructed study by Nienaber et. al. TOE, TTE, CT, MRI were compared in pt’s with suspected acute aortic dissection. -the results showed that for sensitivity: TOE (97.7%), TTE (59.3%), CT (93.8%), MRI (98.3%) -as for specificity: TOE (77.0%), TTE(83.0%), CT (87.1%), MRI (97.8%)
