1 Annuloaortic Ectasia in a Patient With Congenital Absence of the Left Pericardium

2 Fig 1 (A–E) Computed tomography angiography demonstrates extreme displacement of the heart into the left hemithorax with the apex pointing posteriorly. The findings are consistent with congenital absence of pericardium. Note the relatively normal location of the aortic root, ascending aorta, and arch. (F) The aortic root was dilated. The aortic annulus was 3.3 cm. The sinuses of Valsalva measured 4.3 cm × 4.2 cm × 4.0 cm (z score = 2.07). The sinotubular junction was 3.8 cm. The ascending aorta was 3.9 cm × 3.6 cm. The proximal arch was 3.4 cm, and the descending aorta was 2.5 cm. (G) Histologic examination of the aortic wall was consistent with medial necrosis. Excess glycosaminoglycan deposition within the media of the aorta is seen as light blue staining on hematoxylin and eosin stained sections (magnification, ×100). (AoR = aortic root; Dao = descending aorta; LV = left ventricle; RV = right ventricle.)
