Resumen
LOPEZ, Gerardo M. et al. Expected postoperative findings in ascending thoracic aortic surgeries with multislice angiotomography: Everything a radiologist should know. Rev. argent. radiol. [online]. 2022, vol.86, n.2, pp.115-123. Epub 14-Jul-2022. ISSN 1852-9992. http://dx.doi.org/10.24875/rar.m22000024.
Multiple surgical techniques can be used for the reconstruction and treatment of abnormalities that compromise the thoracic aorta, which will be determined by the patients pathology. Multislice computed tomography angiography is the method of choice for their control and monitoring. The radiologist should be familiar with the surgical techniques used (Wheat, Bentall de Bono, and Cabrol, among others), as well as with the structural repairs that are performed and the prosthetic materials used in order to avoid an erroneous interpretation of the images. Spontaneously hyperdense felt, the prosthetic ducts and their anastomosis, both with the aorta and the large vessels, can generate pitfalls in the final report and error in the diagnosis.
