Aortic dissection complicated by coronary malperfusion and tamponade : a case report.
English abstract
Aortic dissection is rare and often presents with atypical symptoms. We describe a case
of a patient with acute aortic dissection involving the coronary arteries, complicated by
pericardial tamponade, and discuss findings using point-of-care ultrasound, diagnostics,
and treatment of this condition.
