A 62-year-old woman experienced an acute type A aortic dissection complicated with profound shock caused by acute myocardial ischemia. Intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) identified a circumferentially dissected intimal flap at 5.5 cm above the aortic valve, prolapsing into the left ventricle through the aortic valve during diastole and obstructing both coronary ostia. Acute aortic dissection must be kept in mind when presented with myocardial ischemia and TEE is the most useful method for detecting a prolapsing cylindrical intimal flap.
