Overview
There is no particular laboratory findings for the diagnosis of aortic dissection. Possible laboratory findings associated with aortic dissection may include troponin elevation, CK-MB elevation, hematuria, and etc. There has been reports of using a smooth muscle myosin heavy chain immunoassay to help diagnose aortic dissection.
Laboratory Findings
There is no particular laboratory findings for the diagnosis of aortic dissection. Possible laboratory findings associated with aortic dissection may include:
- Troponin elevation
- CK-MB elevation
- Hematuria
Cardiac Biomarkers
- Troponin elevation may be observed in approximately 25% of patients with aortic dissection type A. It may be the result of hemodynamic stress and is not associated with poorer prognosis.[1]
- The presence of an elevated CK MB may indicate the presence of concurrent acute myocardial infarction.[2]
Biomarker Studies
- There has been reports of using a smooth muscle myosin heavy chain immunoassay to help diagnose aortic dissection.[3][4]
Urinalysis
- Hematuria may be present and may indicate the presence of renal infarction.[5]
