[Left hemothorax, a complication of a dissecting aneurysm of the descending thoracic aorta].

T Langin1, P E Kelkel, D Villemot.   

Abstract

A woman of 93 was admitted to hospital with a left pleural effusion. The presence of an unrecognised aneurysm of the descending thoracic aorta, lying posteriorly, led to an inadvertent puncture of the aorta. The diagnosis of a haemothorax due to dissection of the aneurysm was supported by echocardiography, and confirmed by angio-scanning.
