Introduction: Aortic dissection is a challenging clinical emergency situation. Symptoms and signs can be produced by rupture or the occlusion of a major vessel. We present a case of aortic dissection that presented to the emergency department with neurovascular symptoms.Case Report: A 55-year-old woman was admitted to our emergency department because of a sudden inability to walk and severe leg pain. She had known hypertension. Her distal pulses were weak, and the legs were cold and pale. She had motor deficits in the lower extremities, too. Her computed tomography revealed aortic dissection from the root of the aorta to the common iliac arteries.Results: Presentation of aortic dissection with neurovascular manifestations is not so common. Despite significant advances in diagnostic and therapeutic techniques, morbidity and mortality rates remain high. So, a high clinical index of suspicion and early diagnosis are necessary

Bilateral Bacak Ağrısı, Güçsüzlük ve Uyuşma ile Başvuran Aort Diseksiyonu

Giriş: Aort diseksiyonu zor tanı konan klinik bir acil durumdur.
Semptom ve bulgular ana damarın tıkanması ya da rüptürü ile
oluşabilir. Biz bu vakada acil servise nörovaskular semptomlarla
başvuran bir aort diseksiyon vakasını sunmaya çalıştık.
Olgu Sunumu: 55 yaşında kadın hasta acil servise ani başlayan
yürüyememe ve şiddetli bacak ağrısı şikayeti ile başvurdu. Hastanın
bilinen hipertansiyonu vardı. Distal nabızları zayıf, bacakları
soğuk ve soluktu. Alt ekstremitelerinde motor kayıp mevcuttu.
Çekilen bilgisayarlı tomografide aortun kökünden başlayan iliak
arterlere kadar uzanım gösteren aort diseksiyonu saptandı.
Sonuç: Aort diseksiyonunun nörovaskular semptomlarla başvurusu
çok sık değildir. Teşhis ve tedavi tekniklerinde giderek ilerlemeye
rağmen halen morbidite ve mortalite oranları yüksektir. Bu
nedenle yüksek klinik şüphe ve erken teşhis önemlidir.
