Renal infarctions caused by dissections of surnumerary renal arteries.
Renal infarction is an uncommon and underdiagnosed cause of acute flank pain. We describe a 48-year-old male patient, previously diagnosed with a bicuspid aortic valve, who presented with multiple renal infarctions, secondary to multiple dissections of the aberrant renal vascular anatomy. Topics: Anti-Inflammatory Agents, Non-Steroidal; Anticoagulants; Aortic Dissection; Aortic Valve; Bicuspid Aortic Valve Disease; Drug Therapy, Combination; Follow-Up Studies; Funnel Chest; Heart Valve Diseases; Heparin, Low-Molecular-Weight; Humans; Infarction; Kidney; Male; Middle Aged; Renal Artery; Renal Circulation; Risk Factors; Treatment Outcome; Vitamin K | 2014 |
Spontaneous dissection of the popliteal artery in a young man. A rare cause of the blue toe syndrome.
Spontaneous arterial dissection in peripheral arteries of the extremities is an extremely rare event. We report a case of a spontaneous dissection of a nonaneurysmal popliteal artery in an otherwise healthy 36-year-old man that came to clinical attention as an acute blue toe syndrome. The diagnosis was primarily made by high-resolution duplex ultrasound that revealed a dissection flap (length: 15.5 mm; thickness: 0.4 mm) together with the partially thrombosed false lumen at the dorsal wall of the left popliteal artery (degree of local diameter reduction: 56%). Further work-up by means of contrast-enhanced MR-A and conventional DSA confirmed a moderate stenosis of the popliteal artery compatible with focal dissection and excluded other causes such as popliteal artery entrapment syndrome. Under full-dose intravenous anticoagulation with unfractionated heparin that was switched to oral anticoagulation with vitamin K antagonists (target INR: 2-3) and conservative management of the blue toe the patient made a gradual, but eventually complete clinical recovery over 8 weeks.
