A middle-aged knitting mechanic underwent replacement of his mitral valve with a Bjork-Shiley prosthesis as well as insertion of multiple autogenous saphenous vein grafts to bypass the occluded coronary arteries. Eight months after cardiac surgery, the patient was re-evaluated because of transient ischemic attacks. Repeat studies revealed a normally functioning mitral disk prosthesis and aortic dissection involving the descending and transverse arch with the saphenous vein graft emerging from the outer lumen. It was decided to continue to treat him conservatively, and he has been doing well for 14 months. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
