CLINICAL AND BIOCHEMICAL DIFFERENCES OF AORTIC DISSECTION AND MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION

Abstract

The problem of aortic dissection remains relevant to date due to the difficulty of diagnosis and poor prognosis-fatal outcome. In type II aortic dissection, the pain is usually localized behind the sternum and simulates an acute myocardial infarction. This situation is especially often observed in cases where the dissection actually extends to the aortic root and contributes to the compression of the coronary arteries, and according to H Borsi, the most common pain syndrome in the dissection of the aorta type I according to De Bekey has to differentiate with the process of dissection of coronary vessels and thus disorders of coronary circulation.
