The Prognosis in Aortic Dissection (Dissecting Aortic Hematoma or Aneurysm) [PDF]
Circulation, 1965 Between 1945 and 1961 50 patients with aortic dissection were seen at the Mayo Clinic. Survival information for prognostic purposes was available in 40 patients and revealed that more than half of the patients were dead within a week. Of 15 patients who survived the acute phase (2 weeks) more than half were dead within a year.
