title: [CT picture of aortic prosthetic grafts and homografts in patients with aortic dissection treated surgically].
abstract: A group of 22 patients with aortic dissection (type I, II and III acc. to De Bakey's classification) and surgically implanted aortic prosthetic grafts was studied, CT scanning is useful in visualizing aortic prosthetic grafts. Dacron vascular prostheses, initially clearly visible give weaker shadows with time, whereas homografts with time, contrast with increasing intensity, with the background on CT scans, due to calcifications.
