This study aimed to define the variables associated with these delays. METHODS AND RESULTS Acute aortic dissection patients enrolled in the International Registry of Acute Aortic Dissection (IRAD) between 1996 and January 2007 were evaluated for factors contributin...

متن کاملAcute type B aortic dissection: does aortic arch involvement affect management and outcomes? Insights from the International Registry of Acute Aortic Dissection (IRAD).
BACKGROUND Stanford Type B acute aortic dissection (TB-AAD) spares the ascending aorta and is optimally managed with medical therapy in the absence of complications. However, the treatment of TB-AAD with aortic arch involvement (AAI) remains an unresolved issue. METHODS AND RESULTS We examined 498 patients with TB-AAD enrolled in the International Registry of Acute Aortic Dissection (IRAD) be...
