1 Rapid aneurysmal degeneration of a Stanford type B aortic dissection in a patient with Loeys–Dietz syndrome  Richard S. Lee, MD, Shafie Fazel, MD, Ulrike Schwarze, MD, Dominik Fleischmann, MD, Gerald J. Berry, MD, David Liang, MD, D. Craig Miller, MD, R. Scott Mitchell, MD  The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery  Volume 134, Issue 1, Pages e1 (July 2007) DOI: /j.jtcvs Copyright © 2007 The American Association for Thoracic Surgery Terms and Conditions

2 Figure 1 Transverse computed tomographic images at the level of the pulmonary artery demonstrate rapid expansion of the descending aortic aneurysm from 41 mm (A) to 45 mm (B) after 7 days.

3 Figure 2 A, Low-power magnification of aortic segment showing the dissection plane in the medial layer. The periadventitial tissue layer is thickened by granulation tissue and fibrous tissue admixed with chronic inflammatory cells (elastic–van Gieson stain ×15). B, Dissection along the outer portion of the medial layer. The dissection plane contains thrombus and early granulation tissue (hematoxylin–eosin stain ×200). Inset, Colloidal iron stain (×400) showing abundant mucopolysaccharide accumulations characteristic of cystic medial degeneration.
