True lumen collapse may be a dynamic process. It predominates during diastole but is reduced during the ejection phase to allow distal true lumen perfusion. In our patient, the filling with contrast medium of both true and false lumens in the descending aorta supports this hypothesis.

Abstract

True lumen collapse may be a dynamic process. It predominates during diastole but is reduced during the ejection phase to allow distal true lumen perfusion. In our patient, the filling with contrast medium of both true and false lumens in the descending aorta supports this hypothesis.
