Acute aortic dissection type A

open access: yesBritish Journal of Surgery, 2012
AbstractBackgroundAcute aortic dissection type A (AADA) is a life-threatening vascular emergency. Clinical presentation ranges from pain related to the acute event, collapse due to aortic rupture or pericardial tamponade, or manifestations of organ or limb ischaemia. The purpose of this review was to clarify important clinical issues of AADA management,

Surgery for Acute Type A Aortic Dissection [PDF]

open access: yesOperative Techniques in Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 1999
Aortic dissection is the most common catastrophic event affecting the aorta. It occurs at least two times more often in men than in women, and it may affect individuals of all ages, but the peak incidence of proximal dissections is between ages 50 to 55 years of age, and of distal dissections, between 60 to 70 years of age.

Management of acute Type A aortic dissection [PDF]

open access: yesMedical Journal Armed Forces India, 2014
Acute aortic dissection is a catastrophic event of sudden onset in which blood leaves the normal aortic channel through an intimal tear, rapidly dissecting the layers of the media to produce a false channel. It may involve the ascending aorta and extend to the aortic bifurcation, the so-called Stanford Type A (Fig. 1).

Treatment of the aortic root in acute aortic dissection type A: insights from the German Registry for Acute Aortic Dissection Type A

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 2022
AbstractOBJECTIVESSurgery of the aortic root in acute aortic dissection type A (AADA) remains a topic of vague evidence since the extend of dissection and surgeons’ capability and interpretation of the disease vary remarkably. We aimed to interpret root operation strategies in the German Registry for Acute Aortic Dissection cohort.METHODSGerman ...

Quadricuspid Aortic Valvulopathy and Acute Type A Aortic Dissection [PDF]

open access: yesAORTA, 2019
AbstractThis case report describes a 55-year-old male who presented with acute Type A aortic dissection. He underwent emergent surgical repair, and his intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography revealed a quadricuspid aortic valve. His aortic root measured 45 mm. Quadricuspid aortic valves have previously been associated with aortic root dilation.

Aortic diameter >or = 5.5 cm is not a good predictor of type A aortic dissection: observations from the International Registry of Acute Aortic Dissection (IRAD).

open access: yes, 2007
BACKGROUND: Studies of aortic aneurysm patients have shown that the risk of rupture increases with aortic size. However, few studies of acute aortic dissection patients and aortic size exist.

The Aortic Root in Acute Type A Dissection: Repair or Replace?

open access: yesThe Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2023
The effect of an "aggressive" approach on the aortic root in acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) remains insufficiently explored.Retrospective analysis was conducted between 1992 and 2020 of a single-center, prospective cohort of consecutive patients aged ≥18 years diagnosed with ATAAD.
