Acute aortic syndrome is a rare disorder, but the incidence is increasing especially in elderly patients. It's known to be associated with chronic hypertension and atherosclerosis. The clinical presentations of patients with acute aortic syndrome are diverse, classically as acute tearing chest pain, although sharp chest pain is the most common presenting complaint. A 75 year-old female patient presented with hemoptysis and chest pain was diagnosed acute aortic syndrome. We discuss the clinical and imaging features of an extremely rare case of acute aortic syndrome with accompanying hemoptysis in conjunction with the literature.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessAgedHemoptysisAneurysmDissecting/complicationsAortic Aneurysm, Thoracic/complicationsAortic Diseases/complicationsAortic Rupture/complicationsA RARE CAUSE OF HEMOPTYSIS IN AN ELDERLY PATIENT: ACUTE AORTIC SYNDROMEArticle164470472WOS:000328934700019Q4Q4
