Pregnancy-associated aortic dissecting aneurysm, a rare complication, was diagnosed in a 34-year-old woman at 38 weeks gestation. Immediate cesarean delivery followed by surgical repair resulted in a healthy infant.

Area of Science:

  • Cardiovascular Surgery
  • Obstetrics and Gynecology
  • Maternal-Fetal Medicine

Background:

  • Aortic dissecting aneurysm is a rare but life-threatening condition during pregnancy.
  • Prompt diagnosis and intervention are critical for maternal and fetal outcomes.

Observation:

  • A 34-year-old woman presented with aortic dissecting aneurysm in her 38th week of pregnancy.
  • The condition was diagnosed late in gestation, necessitating urgent management.

Findings:

  • Immediate cesarean section was performed for delivery of the infant.
  • Surgical repair of the aortic dissection was successfully undertaken post-delivery.

Implications:

  • This case highlights the importance of timely diagnosis and multidisciplinary management of aortic dissection in pregnant patients.
