Baseline computed tomography showed sporadic aortic calcifications and liver tumors (A). His systolic blood pressure increased to 160 mm Hg during chemotherapy1 and decreased to 130 mm Hg with administration of antihypertensive medication. During his sixth cycle of chemotherapy, he developed an acute aortic dissection (AAD, Stanford A) with thrombosed false lumen of the ascending aorta despite good control of blood pressure and reduction of the liver tumors (B). The entry site of the AAD was already calcified before chemotherapy as in A.}, title = {Acute aortic dissection with sporadic aortic calcifications during chemotherapy with sunitinib}, volume = {4}, year = {2018} }
