Serum Glutamic Oxaloacetic Transaminase in Dissecting Aneurysm of the Thoracic Aorta

Abstract
The behavior of serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase level in cases of dissecting aneurysm of the thoracic aorta is reported. Certain clinical and laboratory observations suggest that intrapericardial hemorrhage is the responsible factor when the titer of serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase is elevated.
