Virtual endoscopy of the aorta is a new three-dimensional reconstruction method from multislice computed tomography or magnetic resonance that offers a virtual navigation through the aorta, and the possibility of having a new preoperative endoluminal vision. We present a case of subacute aortic dissection with a preoperative virtual endoscopy of the aorta.
