[Acute aortic dissection in a patient with advanced coronary artery disease--a case report].
A case of a 58-year-old male with acute aortic dissection is presented. A few months earlier the patient underwent transmyocardial laser revascularisation and implantation of venous graft to the left anterior descending coronary artery due to three-vessel disease. Acute aortic dissection was successfully treated by surgery. Therapeutic options in patients with acute aortic dissection and advanced coronary artery disease are discussed.
