Fig 1 A, Preoperative axial computed tomography (CT) image of the mid descending thoracic aorta shows aortic wall thickening (7 mm) and anterior ulceration (arrow). Overall aortic diameter is 31 mm. B, Preoperative right posterior oblique (RPO) maximum intensity projection (MIP) CT image of the descending aorta shows total aortic occlusion below ulcer and extensive intramural hematoma (IMH) distally (arrows). C, Preoperative coronal MIP CT image shows reconstitution distally with flow in bilateral renal arteries. Note residual gastrointestinal contrast from a previous study.

Fig 2 A, Postoperative right posterior oblique maximum intensity projection (MIP) computed tomography image of thoracic and upper abdominal aorta shows resumption of aortic flow with filling of abdominal branch vessels. Ulcer unchanged proximally. IMH has resolved. B, Postoperative coronal MIP image shows improved abdominal aortic flow with visibility of bilateral renal arteries.
