摘要
We present a case of ruptured type A acute aortic dissection with pulmonary trunk compression by mediastinal hematoma. This condition mimicked a pulmonary embolism on the early arterial phase of computed tomography angiography, whereas the correct diagnosis was determined from the late arterial phase and unenhanced computed tomography. We highlight the importance of carefully interpreting triphasic computed tomography angiography to assess the status of aortic dissection.
