Acute aortic syndrome Microchapters |
Editor-In-Chief: C. Michael Gibson, M.S., M.D. [1]Associate Editor(s)-in-Chief: Sahar Memar Montazerin, M.D.[2], Sabawoon Mirwais, M.B.B.S, M.D.[3]
Overview
Acute aortic syndrome (AAS) describes a constellation of emergency conditions with a similar clinical feature that involves the aorta. These include aortic dissection, intramural thrombus, and penetrating atherosclerotic aortic ulcer. It is possible for AAS to get complicated by acute coronary syndrome. The term was introduced in 2001.
Classification
Acute aortic syndrome is classified into 5 entities as follows:[2][3]
- Type I: classic aortic dissection involving an intimal layer between the true and false lumen (with no communication between the two lumen)
- Type II: aortic dissection with medial rupture and the subsequent intramural hematoma formation
- Type III: subtle aortic dissection with bulging of the aortic wall
- Type IV: aortic dissection due to plaque rupture and subsequent ulceration
- Type V: iatrogenic/traumatic dissection
Differentiating Acute Aortic Syndrome from other Diseases
- Acute aortic syndrome should be differentiated from other conditions causing signs and symptoms such as chest pain, dyspnea, back pain and etc.
- For more information on the differential diagnosis of the acute aortic syndrome click here.
Causes
- Causes include aortic dissection, intramural hematoma, penetrating atherosclerotic ulcer or a thoracic aneurysm that has become unstable.[4]
- Basically, AAS can be caused by a breakdown on the wall of the aorta that involves the tunica intima and/or media.[5]
