Fig 2 (A) Precontrast multidetector computed tomographic scan shows a hyperdense thrombus (open arrows) in the anterolateral part of the ascending aorta and a slightly hyperdense lesion (white arrows), initially interpreted as a pulmonary thrombus, along the posterior wall of the right pulmonary artery. (B) Postcontrast multidetector computed tomography shows an ascending aortic aneurysm (black arrow) pressing on the right pulmonary artery and a surgically proven intramural hematoma (white arrows) with narrowing of the right pulmonary arterial lumen. Note the partially thrombosed aortic false lumen (open arrows). The Annals of Thoracic Surgery , DOI: ( /j.athoracsur ) Copyright © 2008 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions
