Aortic Dissection Associated with Acute Myocardial Infarction and Stroke Found at Autopsy [PDF]
It is sometimes very difficult to diagnose dissecting aortic aneurysms in the early stage. We report an autopsy case in which an acute myocardial infarction and cerebral infarction simultaneously occurred and the symptoms were transiently ameliorated in ...

Endovascular repair of aortic dissection and intramural hematoma: indications and serial changes [PDF]
Thoracic aortic dissection (AD) is one of the most common aortic emergencies. It can be fatal if not promptly diagnosed and treated. Intramural hematoma (IMH) of the aorta is recognized as distinct from classic (double-barreled) AD.

The Prognosis in Aortic Dissection (Dissecting Aortic Hematoma or Aneurysm) [PDF]
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.
