Abstract:
We report a case of a 58-year-old female with Stanford type A aortic dissection sparring the donor aorta 2 years after heart transplantation. Lumbar spine magnetic resonance examination for low back pain discovered the aortic dissection which was confirmed by following computed tomography angiography. The patient received surgical treatment including total arc replacement and thoracic aortic endovascular repair and recovered well.
