Abstract

Aortic intramural hematoma (IMH) is a variant of acute aortic syndrome, which can be life-threatening. Ascending aorta IMHs, particularly accompanied by penetrating aortic ulcer (PAU), can cause dissection, rupture, and cardiac tamponade. Therefore, early surgical treatment is recommended for IMHs of the ascending aorta. Herein, we present the case of a 60-year-old male patient who was on warfarin sodium treatment and in whom an IMH localized to the arcus aorta was detected incidentally via computed tomography, with the suspicion of pulmonary embolism, and an endovascular stent graft was inserted into the arcus aorta. This case highlights the importance of following ulcerated aortic plaques and suggests that IMH can be successfully treated with endovascular stent grafting

Özet

Aortik İntramural Hematom (İMH), hayatı tehdit edebilen önemli bir akut aortik sendrom tipidir. Özellikle penetran aortik ülserin eşlik ettiği çıkan aorta İMH'ları diseksiyon, rüptür ve kardiyak tamponada neden olabilir. Bu sebeple çıkan aortada saptanan İMH'da erken cerrahi tedavi önerilmektedir. Biz bu çalışmada oral warfarine kullanan 60 yaşında erkek hastaya pulmoner emboli şüphesi ile bilgisayarlı tomoğrafi çekilmesi sonucunda tesadüfen arkus aorta lokalize intramural hematom tespit edilen ve arkus aorta endovasküler stent greft yerleştirilen bir vakayı sunduk. Bu olgu ülsere aortik plakların takibinin önemini vurgulamakta, intramural hematomun endovasküler stent greft ile başarılı bir şekilde tedavi edilebileceğini göstermektedir.
