AB  - Aortic dissection and pulmonary embolism are serious and potentially life-threatening cardiovascular diseases. Paraplegia is one of the most life-threatening  complication of aortic dissection. The risk of venous thromboembolism increases in patients with paraplegia. The coexistence of aortic dissection, paraplegia, deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism are very rare. This paper reports a case of an 81-year-old male patient, developing paraplegia related to spinal cord ischemia due to acute type I aortic dissection, in the subacute phase, complicated with deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism.

N2  - Aort diseksiyonu ve pulmoner emboli ciddi ve potansiyel olarak yaşamı tehdit eden kardiyovasküler hastalıklardır. Akut aort diseksiyonu sonucu gelişen parapleji en ciddi komplikasyonlardan biridir. Venöz tromboembolizm riski paraplejili hastalarda artar. Aort diseksiyonu, parapleji, derin ven trombozu ve pulmoner embolinin birlikteliği çok nadirdir. Bu yazıda, akut tip I aort diseksiyonu sonucu spinal kord iskemisine bağlı parapleji gelişen, subakut fazda derin ven trombozu ve pulmoner emboli ile komplike olan 81 yaşında bir erkek hastayı sunduk.
