At autopsy, he was found to have hypertensive cardiomegaly and a dissecting syphilitic saccular aneurysm of the ascending aorta and arch with tamponade. Chronic aortic regurgitation, which is often seen in syphilitic aortitis, produces an additive effect to the concentric left ventricular hypertrophy seen in hypertension. 2024 otro 2236-1960 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=576077572008 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5760/576077572008/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5760/576077572008/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5760/576077572008/576077572008.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5760/576077572008/movil 10.4322/acr.2024.475 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=5760 Autopsy and Case Reports application/pdf Hospital Universitário da Universidade de São Paulo Autopsy and Case Reports (Brasil) Vol.14
