| Popis: | Abstract. Aortic dissection is a rupture of the inner layer of the aorta with subsequent penetration of blood into the degeneratively altered middle layer with the formation of false lumen and true lumen. Pregnancy is one of the risk factors for the development of aortic dissection. The incidence of aortic dissection during pregnancy is only 0.0004% of cases.Aim of the study. To analyze national and foreign literature, as well as share own clinical observations in the diagnosis and treatment of patients with aortic dissection in the postpartum period.Material and methods. Two patients after successful childbirth, in the late postpartum period, were admitted with a diagnosis of aortic dissection type A according to Stanford.CT angiography confirmed the presence of Stanford type A aortic dissection. After additional examination, surgical treatment was performed to replace the aortic valve and ascending aorta under artificial circulation, with a satisfactory clinical result.Conclusion. The diagnosis of aortic dissection should be considered in all pregnant women with chest pain, as this condition often goes undiagnosed.The pregnancy period is one of the risk factors for the development of aortic dissection with a high mortality rate. The likelihood of developing aortic dissection in women at risk peaks in the third trimester and the first 12 weeks after delivery.The risk group should include women with confirmed syndromic and non-syndromic genetic diseases, bicuspid aortic valve, coarctation of the aorta, or at least one major criterion indicating the presence of aortopathy (ectopia lentis, aortic aneurysm, habitus, genetic testing).If Marfan syndrome is present, surgical intervention should be considered if the maximum aortic diameter is more than 4.5 cm before pregnancy. In women with Marfan syndrome and aortic dissection in the family history, as well as in the presence of more aggressive genetic diseases (Loeys-Dietz syndrome, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome), it is possible to consider preventive surgical treatment for an aortic diameter of 4.0 cm or more.The delivery in high-risk patients is recommended to be performed in a hospital that has a cardiac surgery service and an “aortic” team. |
