AD case was identified by the presence of any of the following ICD codes: “441.0” (ICD-9) or “I71.0” (ICD-10), or medical terms in Chinese including aortic dissection (or rupture). To minimize the possibility of missing patients, we firstly constructed a relatively loose algorithm to...
Introduction:Aortic dissection (AD) repair is a high-risk procedure. Hospital teaching status may impact postoperative outcomes after AD repair. This study aimed to compare mortality after AD repair for both Stanford Type A (TAAD) and Stanford Type B (TBAD) in urban private practice (UPP) ...

Aortic valve-sparing re-implantation for the treatment of secondary aortic regurgitation due to aortic root dilatation as occurs in Marfan syndrome as well as for the treatment of type A acute aortic dissections (i.e., dissection of the ascending and descending aorta); ...

dissections of the ascending (Stanford type A) or descending (Stanford type B) thoracic aorta are life-threatening conditions requiring emergency treatment, often including surgical repair, and are associated with high short-term and long-term mortality risk1,2. Despite the lethality of these condit...
Several studies have reported lower mortality and morbidity after thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) when compared to open surgical repair (OSR) in the treatment of type B aortic dissection (TbAD). However, there are few studies in the literature on the cost of both treatment options. ...
Background-Population-based data about the incidence and mortality of patients with aortic dissections (ADs) are sparse. Therefore, the hospital incidence and in-hospital mortality of patients undergoing open or endovascular surgery for type A ADs (TAADs) and type B ADs (TBADs) in Germany were...
(ICD9, ICD10, or OPCS-4) consistent with BAV and followed by manual annotation. The validation and test sets were sampled at random with uniform probability from all 14,328 MRI sequences to capture the BAV class distribution expected at test time. Development and validation set MRIs were ...
