Acute type B aortic dissection in the absence of aortic dilatation [PDF]

Journal of Vascular Surgery, 2012
Increasing aortic diameter is thought to be an important risk factor for acute type B aortic dissection (ABAD). However, some patients develop ABAD in the absence of aortic dilatation. In this report, we sought to characterize ABAD patients who presented with a descending thoracic aortic diameter

Management of acute type B aortic dissection [PDF]

The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2013
Acute type B aortic dissection (identified within 2 weeks of symptom onset), as described using the Stanford classification, involves the aorta distal to the left subclavian artery and accounts for 25%-40% of all aortic dissections. The traditional treatment paradigm of medical management for uncomplicated acute type B dissection and open surgical ...

The Risk for Type B Aortic Dissection in Marfan Syndrome

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2015
Aortic dissections involving the descending aorta are a major clinical problem in patients with Marfan syndrome.The purpose of this study was to identify clinical parameters associated with type B aortic dissection and to develop a risk model to predict type B aortic dissection in patients with Marfan syndrome.Patients with the diagnosis of Marfan ...

Retrograde type B aortic dissection after fenestrated-branched endovascular aortic aneurysm repair

Journal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques
Retrograde type B aortic dissection after perivisceral aortic endograft placement is a rare occurrence, not well described in literature. A handful of case reports describe this complication after infrarenal endovascular aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR). We

Changing Management of Type B Aortic Dissections

Methodist DeBakey Cardiovascular Journal, 2023
The purpose of this manuscript is to review recent trends in the management of acute type B aortic dissection. Due to its efficacy and low morbidity, thoracic endografting has rapidly been adopted as the treatment of choice for most patients with malperfusion or rupture as a consequence of acute aortic dissection.

A study of aortic dimension in type B aortic dissection [PDF]

Interactive CardioVascular and Thoracic Surgery, 2007
Difference between arch diameter and true lumen diameter in the descending aorta was studied in patients with type B aortic dissection. The diameters of the aortic arch (Proximal ) and mid-descending aorta (Distal ) were measured on computer tomography angiography (CTA) in 20 healthy adults.
