Acute type B aortic dissection

Current Opinion in Cardiology, 2011
Endovascular techniques are increasingly employed to treat patients with acute and chronic diseases of the thoracic aorta. This review focuses on current indication and results of thoracic endovascular stent-graft repair in patients with acute type B aortic dissection.In patients with type B acute dissections, endovascular treatment should be ...

Traumatic type B aortic dissection.

Acta chirurgica Belgica, 1996
A 37-year-old man was referred with thoracic pain after a deceleration trauma. He also had a cerebral contusion and a wrist fracture. There were no sings of hypovolemic shock. Computerized tomography (CT) of the chest and transoesophageal echocardiography (TEE) demonstrated a type B aortic dissection originating just distal to the left subclavian ...

Chronic Type B Aortic Dissection

2020
One of the major pathologic aortic entities is aortic dissection (AD). The classification as “chronic” was set for patients with type B dissection (CTBAD) initially beyond a two-week time-period, and lately >90 days, introducing a subacute phase from day 15 to 90.

Endovascular Therapies for Type B Aortic Dissection

Cardiovascular & Hematological Disorders-Drug Targets, 2021
:Aortic dissection is a life-threatening condition resulting from a tear in the intimal layer of the aorta, requiring emergent diagnosis and prompt multi-disciplinary management strategy for best patient outcomes. While type A dissection involving ascending aorta is best managed surgically due to high early mortality, Type B Aortic Dissection (TBAD ...

Readmissions after acute type B aortic dissection

Journal of Vascular Surgery, 2020
Acute type B aortic dissection can be treated with medical management alone, open surgical repair, or thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR). The nationwide burden of readmissions after acute type B aortic dissection has not been comprehensively assessed.We analyzed adults with a hospitalization due to acute type B aortic dissection between ...

Acute Type B Aortic Dissection

2020
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 ...

Acute type B aortic dissection: surgical therapy

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2002
Surgery for acute type B aortic dissection is associated with significant mortality. We report the results for 34 consecutive patients who underwent urgent surgery because they met criteria for operation during the acute phase (< 14 days) of acute type B dissection.The average patient age was 64 (32 to 88) years. Indications for surgery were persistent

[Acute type B aortic dissection].

Kyobu geka. The Japanese journal of thoracic surgery, 2004
Although most patients with acute type B aortic dissection are treated medically, emergency surgery is needed for patients with complications, such as rupture, uncontrollable pain, refractory hypertension, a huge pseudo-lumen or organ ischemia. Optimal surgery should be selected according to each condition.
