Abstract
We describe the case of a 66-year-old gentleman with a previous replacement of the ascending aorta for an acute Type A aortic dissection who did not attend any scheduled follow-up visit. Seventeen years later, he presented to our institution with severe aortic regurgitation and with a giant aneurysmal dilation of the abdominal aorta.
