  1. X-ray (chest), PA, Aortic Dissection, Adult Male

    show more
    Description: CXR PA - Adult male, aortic dissection 1. Tip of endotracheal tube. Ideally the tip of the endotracheal tube should be 3-5 cm above the carina. 2. Tip of central venous catheter in proper location at the junction of the SVC and the right atrium. Line placed in left subclavian vein. 3. Catheter placed into the right IJ vein that traverses the cardiac chambers most likely representing a Swan-Ganz hemodynamic monitoring catheter. 4. Wide mediastinum greater than 8 cm with indistinct AP window consistent with aortic dissection or aneurysm. Compare this to the normal mediastinum and sharp contour of the aorta on the right. Unfortunately, in clinical practice aortic dissection and aneurysm is usually much more subtle than on this study, particularly when you are seeing a patient that is still salvageable. The chest x-ray has a poor sensitivity and specificity for picking up this disastrous condition. If you think your patient may have this disease, do not be tricked into ruling it out based on a normal chest x-ray! 5. Deviation of the trachea to the right of the midline, likely due to mass effect from the aortic disease.
