Complete circumferential aortic dissection with bidirectional intimo-intimal intussusception is a rare occurrence in Stanford type A dissections. The antegrade dissection flap can obstruct the left ventricular outflow tract and coronary sinuses, whereas the retrograde flap can obstruct the aortic arch and branch vessels. Sequelae include aortic regurgitation, myocardial ischemia, and neurologic complications. This case series highlights the need for prompt diagnosis with electrocardiography-gated computed tomography and surgical intervention for this unique pathologic process.

Background: Acute heart failure due to aortic regurgitation (AR) is a severe comorbidity of type A acute aortic dissection (AAD). Valve-sparing aortic root replacement is typically performed when the aortic valve remains intact.

Complete circumferential dissection is a rare clinical presentation of aortic dissection, wherein the dissected flap has the potential to cause intimo-intimal intussusception, which can lead to several catastrophic complications. We report a case of Stanford type A acute aortic dissection with intimo-intimal intussusception causing unstable cerebral ischemic symptoms. An 82-year-old man was taken to another hospital with severe intermittent dizziness.

Background: Acute aortic circumferential dissection with proximal intimo-intimal intussusception is a rare and potentially lethal occurrence. We here report a case and review previous works to better understand this particular condition and help surgeons to determine accurate diagnosis and optimal intervention strategies by intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography (TEE).
Case Presentation: We report a case of a 46-year-old male who complained of sudden substernal chest pain.
