[...]. Aortic Dissection with Adventitial Extension. CTICases. Published May 25, 2023. https://str-case-explorer.pages.dev/c/y7kxf
Imaging findings
Acute aortic dissection involving the ascending aorta with blood density tracking along the shared adventitial sheath of the pulmonary arteries, extending to sub-segmental branches.
Key takeaways
Blood can extend along the shared adventitial sheath between the aorta and pulmonary arteries. This can be extensive and may act as a decompressive mechanism during an acute dissection.
