Evaluating the diagnostic accuracy of maximal aortic diameter, length and volume for prediction of aortic dissection

Heart, 2020
Objective Management of thoracic aortic aneurysms (TAAs) comprises regular diameter follow-up until the indication criterion for prophylactic surgery is reached. However, this approach is unable to predict the majority of acute type A aortic dissections (

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.

Fatal Case of Type A Aortic Dissection Presenting As Acute Renal Failure

Archives of Clinical and Experimental Surgery, 2014
Aortic dissection is a life-threatening illness requiring early diagnosis and treatment. Uncommon early presentations mimicking various illnesses can delay diagnosis. Acute renal failure (ARF) is an uncommon complication of type A aortic dissection (AAD).

Ultrasound compared to Computed Tomography in identifying thoracic aortic aneurysms in patients with Giant Cell Arteritis

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objectives The objectives of this study were to evaluate the correlation and agreement between ultrasound and computed tomography (CT) in measuring ascending aorta diameter in patients with giant cell arteritis (GCA) and to investigate the development of new ascending aortic aneurysms in patients with newly diagnosed GCA. Methods To achieve the primary
