title: Syncope and cardiovocal syndrome as the result of a spontaneous innominate artery dissection.
abstract: Dissection of the innominate artery is extremely rare and is associated with a high in-hospital mortality rate. We present the case of a 44-year-old man who presented with syncope and cardiovocal syndrome as the result of a spontaneous innominate artery dissection with an extension to the right common carotid.
