Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair for Acute Aortic Dissection
Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) for thoracic aortic disease constitutes a paradigm shift in the treatment strategy of aortic dissection, as well as thoracic aortic aneurysms. Conventionally, most patients with Stanford type B acute aortic dissection are treated using conservative medical treatment during the acute phase.

Endovascular Versus Open Repair For Chronic Type B Dissection Treatment: A meta-analysis. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The respective place of endovascular versus open surgery in thoracic dissecting aneurysm treatment remains debatable. This comprehensive review seeks to analyse the outcomes of endovascular repair (ER) compared to open surgery (OS) in chronic

Lifelong aortic risk in Turner syndrome: Unexpected aortic events in asymptomatic patients
Individuals with Turner syndrome (TS) face a high relative risk of acute aortic dissection compared with the general population. Dissection risk is greatest in those who have congenital heart disease, thoracic aortic aneurysms, or hypertension. This case
