GOPAR-NIETO, Rodrigo et al. Complete atrioventricular block as an initial manifestation of aortic dissection: A case report. Cir. cir. [online]. 2020, vol.88, n.4, pp.511-513. Epub 08-Nov-2021. ISSN 2444-054X. https://doi.org/10.24875/ciru.19001232.
The right coronary artery involvement occurs in 1-2% of aortic dissection and may cause atrioventricular (AV) block due to obstruction of blood supply to the AV node. A 59-year-old man with a history of hypertension presented to the emergency department with chest pain and complete AV block. After the diagnostic approach, aortic dissection Stanford A was diagnosed. Aortic dissection must be suspected in hypertensive patients who present with AV block and chest pain.
