Abstract

Aorto-coronary artery dissection (CCAD) is rare but potentially fatal complication of catheter coronary angiography. Management is dependent on the state of distal arterial flow and the extension of retrograde aortic dissection. This manuscript describes the use and appearance of CCAD on ECG-gated multi-detector CT coronary angiogram in the acute setting.
