A Case of Collapsed Stent Graft, Severe Lower Limb Ischemia, and Ruptured Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Due to Type B Acute Aortic Dissection 3 Years after Endovascular Aneurysm Repair.

We report a case of stent graft occlusion, severe lower extremity ischemia, and ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm due to type B acute aortic dissection 3 years after endovascular aneurysm repair. He admitted our hospital because of abrupt back pain and dysesthesia of bilateral lower limb. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) scan showed type B acute aortic dissection and occlusion of the stent graft due to dynamic compression by the false lumen.

[Cardiac Tumor on All Cusps of the Aortic Valve;Report of a Case].

An 80-year-old woman was incidentally found to have a cardiac tumor on the aortic valve by echocardiography. Papillary fibroelastoma(PFE) was strongly suspected, and urgent operation was performed to prevent embolism. Two tumors were identified arising from the left and right cusps with wide stalks, and aortic valve replacement was performed.
