Extensive aortic dissection (Stanford Type A) presenting with confusion in a patient: a case report
Spontaneous extensive aortic dissection is rarely documented in the literature with a misdiagnosis rate of up to 38% in previous studies. Vital signs and clinical manifestations vary and depend on the extent of the dissection and location.

Role of Echocardiography as Supporting Diagnostic Modality in Localized Stanford Type A Aortic Dissection [PDF]
Ascending Stanford type A aortic dissection carries a high morbidity and mortality. Proper identification of the proximal origin of the dissection and determination of concomitant aortic valve involvement significantly facilitate surgical repair which ...

Interrupted Aortic Arch Complicated with Type A Aortic Dissection in a Young Adult
Interrupted aortic arch (IAA) is a congenital anomaly characterized by a discontinuity between the ascending and descending aorta. We present a 27-year-old male patient who had presented with Stanford Type A aortic dissection and was subsequently found ...

False positive computed tomographic angiography for Stanford type A aortic dissection
Background: Computed tomographic angiography (CTA) has emerged as the defacto imaging test to rule out acute aortic dissection; however, it is not without flaws.

Undiagnosed Stanford type A aortic dissection: a rare survival report
Acute aortic dissection is a life-threatening conditions with a high mortality rate within the first 24 h since presentation, if left untreated. Nevertheless the setting may be chronic and stable. We present a rare case of a misdiagnosed and unoperated Stanford type A aortic dissection in a 78-year old woman with stable computed tomography features at ...

A Rare Complication of TEVAR Performed for Complex Acute Stanford B Aortic Dissection
Management of aortic dissection with a novel endovascular technique known as thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) paired with surgical debranching as a less invasive alternative to conventional repair has gained widespread acceptance.

Hybrid Approach to Complex Stanford Type B Dissection: Unusual Extra-anatomical Bypass (Aorto- Celiac-Mesenteric Bypass) + Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair (TEVAR) + Cholecystectomy. [PDF]
Patients with complex Stanford type B aortic dissection are very difficult to treat. Many methods have been proposed so far in the treatment of these patients, and the emergence of hybrid techniques has made the treatment easier.

Research progress on endovascular treatment of Stanford Type A aortic dissection [PDF]
Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) has become the primary treatment for Stanford Type B aortic dissection. With the development of new endovascular grafts for the aortic arch, endovascular treatment for lesions involving all three branches of ...
