Abstract
Aortic dissection (AD) is an acute emergency condition of the aorta, which often has a fatal outcome. In the acute setting, management of AD is limited to control of hypertension, early recognition of the dissection, and activation of surgical services. In this article we reported two cases of 42 and 45 y/o male patients with chest pain, no hypertension having AD. They just lifted a roughly heavy (10Kg) object. A multi-detector CT applied to perform CT-angiography. To reduce morbidity and mortality, AD should always be considered in patients who present with severe chest pain of abrupt onset. Also, aortic dissections can occur in patients without atypical signs and symptoms.
