Abstract
Aortic insufficiency was identified in a patient with acute ascending aortic dissection. The aortic insufficiency was limited to the first half of diastole by prolapse of the intimal flap against the regurgitant orifice. This unusual pathophysiology was well demonstrated by two-dimensional and color flow Doppler echocardiography.
