Risk Factors for Thoracic Aortic Dissection
Thoracic aortic aneurysms involving the root and/or the ascending aorta enlarge over time until an acute tear in the intimal layer leads to a highly fatal condition, an acute aortic dissection (AAD).

Current Understanding of Aortic Dissection
The aorta is the largest artery in the body, delivering oxygenated blood from the left ventricle to all organs. Dissection of the aorta is a lethal condition caused by a tear in the intimal layer of the aorta, followed by blood loss within the aortic ...

Aortic root enlargement is generally asymptomatic, with few clinical clues, but may be observed as an incidental finding on a chest x‐ray, echocardiogram, or contrast‐enhanced computerized tomogram of the chest. Aortic dissection is one of the most feared complications of hypertension.
