Delayed asymptomatic progressive aortic dissecting aneurysm in patient with STEMI
An 80-year-old woman visited emergency room because of resting chest pain for one hour. She had history of hypertension for 10 years. The blood pressure was 80/50 mmHg and the pulse rate was 51 beats/min. The electrocardiogram demonstrated Junctional bradycardia and ST elevation in lead Ⅱ, Ⅲ and aVF...

Summary: | An 80-year-old woman visited emergency room because of resting chest pain for one hour. She had history of hypertension for 10 years. The blood pressure was 80/50 mmHg and the pulse rate was 51 beats/min. The electrocardiogram demonstrated Junctional bradycardia and ST elevation in lead Ⅱ, Ⅲ and aVF. Chest X-ray indicated cardiomegaly (Figure 1A). Coronary angiography revealed near total occlusion of proximal right coronary artery (RCA). She underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for the RCA lesion successfully. Echocardiography showed hypokinesia of RCA territory (Figure 2A). |
