title: [Aortic dissection associated with percutaneous intra-aortic balloon pumping].
abstract: This is a case report of aortic dissection associated with percutaneous intraaortic balloon insertion, which was attempted for systolic unloading after repair of left ventricular rupture. But the hemodynamic condition gradually deteriorated in spite of IABP support and aortic dissection was suspected from the difference between monitoring pressures of bilateral radial arteries and balloon tip. The balloon was removed on the 3rd postoperative day, but the patient died from renal failure, liver dysfunction and D.I.C. on the 7th postoperative day. At postmortem examination, aortic dissection was found, which extended from left common iliac artery, all the way past right renal artery and ended just below origin of left subclavian artery. Therefore, acute renal failure was supposed to be followed by aortic dissection.
