Abstract:   (882 Views)
Acute aortic dissection is a rare but fatal event in pregnancy with a reported incidence of 14% of all cardiac-related maternal mortality. Saving a mother and her baby together in an emergent situation which needs proper decision-making and good teamwork. On the other hand, using standard diagnostic tools such as computed tomography (CT) angiography may not be a good decision as it postpones necessary intervention and causes encounter of the mother and her fetus to a more harmful situation. Here we present a 25-year-old pregnant woman with acute aortic dissection who was diagnosed by echocardiography data. On-time surgical intervention saved a mother and her baby’s life. One-year follow-up showed no complication.
