Acute aortic dissection is a life-threatening condition, and may be treated with aggressive hypotensive drug therapy, but emergency surgery is often necessary. We evaluated the effectiveness of stent-grafts for the treatment of acute aortic dissection. Aortic dissection was surgically created in the descending thoracic aorta in 20 adult mongrel dogs. A stent-graft was inserted in the entry posi...
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death worldwide. Acute aortic syndromes, which include aortic dissection, intramural hematoma, and penetrating aortic ulcer, represent the most morbid presentations of aortic disease and can be difficult to diagnose. Recent advances in imaging have allowed for more rapid and accurate diagnosis of acute aortic syndromes and the options for managemen...
Acute aortic dissection bears all the stigmata of a true clinical emergency. The natural history of this acute aortic syndrome warrants prompt surgical intervention, with only a few absolute contraindications to this line of treatment. We present a 74-year-old man with documented metastatic prostate cancer who underwent emergent surgery for acute Stanford A aortic dissection. Having acknowledge...
T he list of long-term complications after surgical intervention for acute type A aortic dissection includes recurrent dissection, aneurysm formation, and aortic valve regurgitation. Ten years after the initial operation for acute type A dissection, the reoperation rate for these kinds of long-term complications is 13% to 30% in the literature.1 The diseased aortic root in these patients is com...
BACKGROUND Sleep apnea syndrome (SAS) is an independent risk factor for hypertension which is a major risk factor for acute aortic dissection. The purposes of this study were to assess the prevalence of SAS in patients with acute aortic dissection, delineate the characteristics of patients who have acute aortic dissection with SAS. METHODS Of 95 consecutive patients with acute aortic dissecti...
Acute Type A aortic dissection is a surgical emergency. Urgent repair is indicated to avoid complications such as acute aortic insufficiency, coronary ischemia and aortic rupture with cardiac tamponade. This report details the management of a patient with acute Type A aortic dissection complicated by an extensive anterolateral myocardial infarction and cardiogenic shock who was successfully bri...
Although not common, acute leg ischemia is an important element in the clinical presentation of a patient with aortic dissection. This report describes a case of aortic dissection in which the main feature at presentation was acute right leg ischemia. The angiography showed right common iliac artery and external iliac artery occlusion. Diagnosis was made by clinical evaluation and angiography. ...
BACKGROUND Clinical criteria for aortic dissection are poorly defined. Thus, 35% of aortic dissections remain unsuspected in vivo, and 99% of suspected cases can be refuted. OBJECTIVE To identify independent predictors of acute aortic dissection and create a prediction model for facilitated estimation of the individual risk of dissection. METHODS Two hundred fifty patients with acute chest ...
Acute type B aortic dissection: insights from the International Registry of Acute Aortic Dissection.
Acute type B aortic dissection comprises approximately one-third of all aortic dissection cases. Although this catastrophic cardiovascular condition was first described in the medical literature over two centuries ago, data on the optimal diagnostic and treatment modalities for type B dissection was slow to evolve throughout the latter half of the twentieth century, even as newer diagnostic tec...
