Aortic intramural haematoma associated with the use of nintedanib.
We report a 74-year-old patient who developed an acute aortic syndrome (AAS) with intramural haematoma (IMH) during treatment with nintedanib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor. As we suspected a role for nintedanib, this was immediately interrupted. Four months later, a computed tomographic angiography (CTA) showed significant regression of the IMH. Therefore, we state that, when patients use nintedanib and develop acute chest or back pain, diagnostic work-up for AAS should be considered. Furthermore, other risk factors for AAS, such as hypertension, genetic diseases and comedication should be taken into account when prescription of medication of this class is considered.
