Acute aortic dissection

The Lancet, 2023
Although substantial progress has been made in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of acute aortic dissection, it remains a complex cardiovascular event, with a high immediate mortality and substantial morbidity in individuals surviving the acute period.

Intramural aortic dissection

Australasian Radiology, 1996
SUMMARYWe present 10 cases of intramural aortic dissection. The cases are all characterized by the presence of intramural haematoma without the presence of a patent false lumen. The radiological features and possible aetiologies are discussed. The key radiological finding is the presence of a hyperdense rim in the aortic wall on a non‐contrast‐enhanced

Intraoperative aortic dissection

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1992
Intraoperative aortic dissection is a rare but potentially fatal complication of open heart operations. If the dissection is promptly recognized and repaired, however, the outcome may be significantly better. In this study, we reviewed the hospital records of patients with dissection of the aortic arch occurring as a complication of a cardiac operation

Bloodless aortic dissection

Forensic Science, Medicine, and Pathology, 2013
"Bloodless aortic dissection" is a rare cause of sudden death due to an aortic dissection without intimal tears and with no blood present within the dissected aortic wall. The first case was described in 1993. Death was considered to be caused by acute myocardial ischemia from dissection involving the left coronary artery.

Acute Aortic Dissection

The American Journal of Nursing, 1980
Tom Gregory always considered himself relatively healthy despite the fact that he had been diagnosed as having hypertension and told that he had had a heart attack a few years ago. He hadn't spent time in the hospital, so how bad could it have been, he thought. When I first met him, however, that had changed.

Painless Aortic Dissection

The American Journal of the Medical Sciences, 2017
Painless aortic dissection (PAoD) has been previously linked to poor outcomes. We recently encountered a case of a patient with PAoD presenting with dyspnea; the clue to diagnosis was the presence of a loud aortic diastolic murmur. A systematic review of the literature revealed 86 other cases, 62% of which occurred in men with a mean age of 65 years ...

Acute aortic dissection

BMJ, 2011
Acute aortic dissection is caused by an aortic intimal tear with propagation of a false channel in the media. Depending on the site and extent of the tear, it may cause chest, back, or abdominal pain, or collapse caused by rupture or malperfusion (transient or persistent ischaemia of any organ as a result of arterial branch obstruction).

Acute aortic dissection

Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 1999
The treatment of patients with acute aortic dissection must begin as soon as the diagnosis is first suspected. Aggressive measures to lower the systemic blood pressure and its rate of increase (dP/dt), usually with intravenous beta-blockade in combination with sodium nitroprusside, should be instituted immediately, even before confirmatory imaging ...

Iatrogenic aortic dissection

The American Journal of Cardiology, 2002
Given the difference in risk factors, clinical presentation, and outcomes, clinicians should be vigilant for the presence of iatrogenic AD, particularly in those patients with unexplained hemodynamic instability or myocardial ischemia following invasive vascular procedures or CABG.
