Abstract

Acute aortic dissection combined with cardiac tamponade is fatal. The radical treatment is an aortic replacement; however, the risk is high. The treatment method for elderly patients is difficult to determine. We suggest conservative treatment with pericardial drainage may be one of the treatment options in the elderly with comorbidities.
