Abstract

Annuloectatic Disease is a group of pathologies with a similar phenotypic expression, combining aortic root aneurysm and dilation of the aortic ring. Echocardiography and spiral thoracic computed tomography are key examinations for assessing the diameter of the ascending aorta and its progression over time. Aortic root aneurysms can be idiopathic or associated with connective tissue disorders such as Marfan syndrome, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, or bicuspid aortic valves. We present the case of a young patient from the cardiology department at HMIMV, who consulted for recurrent chest pain, and whose diagnostic evaluation revealed an ectasia of the aortic root.
