Abstract

Aortic pseudoaneurysms are one of the most important complications to be encountered in cardiac surgery. Recently, the aortic pseudoaneurysms have been diagnosed by contrast enhanced computerized tomography. It has high specificity and sensitivity rates. Late postoperative sternal abscesses are rarely seen after open heartsurgery. Thorax computerized tomography scan revealed abscess extending from subcutaneous tissue to the medullar component of sternum, overlying retrosternal giant aortic pseudoaneurysms. This article presents the case of a patient, who had undergone Bentall procedure three years ago due to type I aortic dissection and laterpresented in our cardiovascular surgery department with a sternal mass.

Özet

Aortic pseudoanevrizmalar kalp cerrahisinde karşılaşılabilecek en önemli komplikasyonlardan biridir. Son zamanlarda aortic pseudoanevrizmalara kontrastlı bilgisayarlı tomografi ile tanı konmaktadır. Bu test oldukça yüksek özgüllük ve hassasiyet değerlerine sahiptir. Geç dönem sternal apseler açık kalp cerrahisinden sonra nadiren gözlenmektedirler. Bilgisayarlı toraks tomografisinde subkutanöz dokudan başlayıp sternum medullasına kadar uzanan absenin aortik retrosternal dev bir pseudoanevrizma üzerine oturduğu saptandı. Bu makalede; üç yıl önce tip I aortic diseksiyon nedeni ile Bentall ameliyatı olan ve daha sonra sternal kitle yakınmasıyla kalp damar cerrahisi kliniğimize müracaat eden hasta sunulmaktadır.
