Background Type A aortic dissections (TAAD) are devastating aortic complications. Patients
with Marfan syndrome, a bicuspid aortic valve or a thoracic aortic aneurysm have an …

Background: Outcomes of early-onset acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) associated
with Marfan syndrome (MFS) are known, but not with other etiologies. Methods and Results …

Background Type A aortic dissection (TAAD) has a rapid onset and high mortality. Currently,
aortic diameter is the major criterion for evaluating the risk of TAAD. We attempted to find …

BACKGROUND: Increasing aortic diameter is thought to be an important risk factor for acute
type B aortic dissection (ABAD). However, some patients develop ABAD in the absence of …

Aortic dissection has extremely poor natural outcome, however, there are rare reports about
early and long term survival of chronic TAAD who received treatment either medically or …

Background Patients with type A aortic dissection (TAAD) have a high short‐term risk of
stroke. However, whether patients with TAAD have an increased long‐term risk of stroke is …

Background: Improved medical care after initial aortic dissection (AD) has led to increased
survivorship and a population of individuals at risk for further cardiovascular events …

Aortic dissection is a relatively rare condition with catastrophic outcomes if left untreated.
The classification of this pathology is essentially based on its anatomical location or acuity …

Objectives: We sought to evaluate the clinical characteristics, management, and outcomes of
elderly patients with acute type A aortic dissection. Background: Few data exist on the …

Background Aortic dissection is a life-threatening cardiovascular disease with high mortality.
Little is known about comparisons of the clinical characteristics or the factors that influence …
