Double jeopardy: Successful management of a traumatic ascending aortic pseudoaneurysm with concurrent subdural hematoma()

We present the case of a 59-year-old male who sustained an ascending aortic injury and a subdural hematoma after a head on collision. After undergoing emergent craniotomy for evacuation of the subdural hematoma, he was maintained with strict blood pressure control. Once able to be safely anticoagula...

Sumario:We present the case of a 59-year-old male who sustained an ascending aortic injury and a subdural hematoma after a head on collision. After undergoing emergent craniotomy for evacuation of the subdural hematoma, he was maintained with strict blood pressure control. Once able to be safely anticoagulated, he underwent replacement of the ascending aorta. This exceedingly rare case was managed by a multidisciplinary team approach that led to an optimal outcome given his disastrous multi-traumatic injuries.
