Case Report (n=1)
No
This case report highlights the diagnostic and therapeutic challenges of acute aortic syndromes, specifically differentiating and managing intramural hematoma versus aortic dissection.
Does not support practice change from one case; leaves open need for larger series on Bentall outcomes in intramural hematoma.
The authors present a case report of a 60-year-old patient with an ascending aortic aneurysm along with the associated diagnostic and therapeutic problems. The choice of therapy in patients with aortic intramural hematoma is difficult and should be based on comprehensive evaluation of the patient's status as well as on the experience of the radiologist and surgeon.

Suder et al. (2015) conducted a case report in Ascending aortic aneurysm and intramural hematoma/aortic dissection (n=1). Surgical replacement of the ascending aorta and aortic arch (Bentall de Bono technique) was evaluated on Surgical outcome and patient recovery.
