Abstract
|
|
|
|
Penetrating atherosclerotic ulcer involving the aortic arch has rarely been reported on in the literature. Acute rupture of a penetrating atherosclerotic ulcer involving the distal arch and the proximal descending thoracic aorta was found in a 78-year-old male, and he originally presented with acute-onset shoulder pain and hoarseness. Patch repair of the perforated arch and the proximal descending thoracic aorta was successfully done under total circulatory arrest. (Korean J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg 2007;40:704-707)
