Abstract:
:An adolescent female with occult cystic medial necrosis died following spontaneous aortic rupture. A large saccular aortic aneurysm that had ruptured into the pericardial space was demonstrated by two-dimensional echocardiography and confirmed at surgery. Echocardiographic screening of the patient's family members revealed a 13-year-old brother with unsuspected aortic root dilatation. He is now being followed for possible progression of his disease. This case demonstrates the role of echocardiography in cystic medial necrosis. It can aid the acute management of patients with aortic dissection or aneurysm. It can also define patients with occult disease who require serial follow-up and genetic counseling.
