2 Fig 1 Bidimensional reconstruction of spiral CT scan in coronal (A) and axial (B) plane. False lumen (FL) with the proximal tear into the proximal and descending aorta. Images (C) and (D) are three-dimensional reconstruction with intimal flap in the aorta. (D), false lumen with late back flow beyond the left subclavian artery.

3 Fig 2 Four different virtual endoluminal images of the aorta, reconstructed in three dimensions, using volume rendering techniques. (A) Vision of the ascending aorta from the arch. (B) Vision of the false lumen through the tear. (C) Aspect of the intimal tear. (D) Inner vision of the false lumen. (av = atrioventricular; nc = noncoronary).

4 Fig 3 Virtual endoluminal images of the dissection. (A) Vision of the left coronary sinus, ostium of the left coronary artery and aortic valve. (B) Vision of the ascending aorta from the aortic valve showing the intimal proximal tear. (∗ = False lumen.) (C) Branch vessels of the aortic arch. (D) True lumen of the thoracic aorta compressed by the false lumen. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /j.athoracsur ) Copyright © 2005 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions
