Excerpt

Thoracic aortic dissection is a lethal condition, with approximately 20 % of patients dying before they reach hospital. The precursor to the majority of aortic dissections is underlying aortic dilatation and aneurysm, although some individuals sustain dissection in the absence of overt aortic dilatation [1]. …
