Type B aortic dissection with partial thrombosis of the false lumen, starting immediately after the emergence of the left subclavian artery, extending, in the direction the bifurcation of the aorta, to the left iliac artery. The supra-aortic and abdominal branches were not affected by the dissection (Figures 1-3).
- Multidetector CT of the abdomen. Coronal reformatted images of the abdominal aorta, showing the narrowed lumen of the abdominal aorta.
