Midterm prognosis of type B aortic dissection with and without dissecting aneurysm of descending thoracic aorta after endovascular repairFew studies support guidelines for the use of thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) to address type B aortic dissection (TBAD) coexisting with descending thoracic...

Acute type B aortic dissection comprises approximately one-third of all aortic dissection cases. Although this catastrophic cardiovascular condition was first described in the medical literature over two centuries ago, data on the optimal diagnostic and treatment modalities for type B dissection was slow ...
Intuitively, it would appear reasonable to expect that Type B dissection patients would be innately and commonly prone to Type A dissections. However, the actual rate of occurrence of Type A aortic dissections in patients who have sustained a previous Type B aortic dissection is not well-known....
Purpose: To study mid-term outcomes in patients admitted to receive treatment for acute type B aortic dissection.Methods: The study group comprised 229 patients with acute type B aortic dissection treated between January 2000 and July 2010. 128 patients had a thrombosed false lumen, and 101 had...
dissection was originally based on evidence in the literature of protective effect of false lumen thrombosis against false lumen expansion and on the clinical observation that patients in the rare instance of spontaneous thrombosis of the false lumen have a better long-term prognosis than without it....
Objective To investigate the correlations between the time of thoracic endovascular aortic repair(TEVAR) and prognosis in patients with type B acute aortic dissection(AADB). Methods The clinical data of 156 AADB patients with TEVAR was retrospectively analyzed and divided into 3 groups according to...
2, 3, 4, 5 An International Registry of Acute Aortic Dissection study showed 28% mortality in acute type B aortic dissection (ATBAD) with malperfusion compared with 9.6% in those without malperfusion.2 Malperfusion is defined as inadequate flow to a vascular territory, whereas malperfusion ...
