May 22nd, 2022 - Type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) is hypothesised as a progression of aneurysmal dilation, but 60% of patients in the International Registry of Acute Aortic Dissection (iRAD) registry had a maximum aortic diameter (MAD)<55 mm. We aim to demonstrate...

May 20th, 2022 - This study aimed to investigate the influence of abdominal aortic calcification on the distal extent, blood supply, and mid-term outcomes of acute aortic dissection (AAD). This single-centre retrospective study was conducted from August 2014 to Ma...

May 14th, 2022 - In patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), lengthy treatment and long-term steroid use are the main risk factors for developing aortic aneurysms or aortic dissections. In patients with cardiac tamponade, hemodynamic collapse may lead to ...

May 14th, 2022 - Previous work has demonstrated that more than one-half of acute type A aortic dissections (ATADs) occur at a maximal aortic diameter (MAD) of <5.5 cm. However, no analysis has investigated whether ATAD risk at smaller MADs is more common with mode...

May 6th, 2022 - Surgery of the aortic root in acute aortic dissection type A (AADA) remains a topic of vague evidence since the extend of dissection and surgeons' capability and interpretation of the disease vary remarkably. We aimed to interpret root operation s...

Nov 20th, 2021 - Acute aortic syndrome (AAS) includes the entities of acute aortic dissection, intramural hematoma, and penetrating atherosclerotic ulcer. AAS typically presents with sudden onset of severe, tearing, anterior, or interscapular back pain. Symptoms m...

Jan 3rd, 2016 - Physicians and surgeons faced with patients with thoracic aortic disease (TAD) need to determine the underlying diagnosis to facilitate decisions regarding appropriate investigations as well as which other specialists to involve, when to start med...

Feb 5th, 2020 - The investigators' previous study has stressed that inhaled nitric oxide therapy might play an ameliorative role in patients with refractory hypoxemia after surgical treatment of type A acute aortic dissection. The possible reason might be the dec...

Jan 3rd, 2019 - Acute AD will include the following etiological entities, also known as acute aortic syndromes: acute aortic dissection, intramural aortic hematoma, penetrating aortic ulcer and spontaneous aortic rupture. A pre-specified secondary sub-analysis wi...

Dec 22nd, 2017 - The study included 884 patients enrolled in our institute between June 2002 and May 2016. Considering psychosocial factors, treatments, and the outcomes in men versus those in women with acute aortic dissection, explored the association of sex wit...

Aug 19th, 2014 - Compare the renal complication of endovascular and open repair of acute aortic dissection by including patient treated at NTUH in 2010~2013.

May 28th, 2012 - In 1996, the Internation Registry of Acute Aortic Dissection(IRAD) was established to improve clinical diagnosis and treatment of acute aortic dissection. However, most patients from the IRAD are Caucasian. These data were not sufficient to reflec...

Jun 15th, 2021 - NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Women with type A acute aortic dissection (TAAD) were more likely to present late, with complications, and die in the hospital than men in an observational study. "The most significant finding of the study was indeed th...

Oct 15th, 2020 - People who have undergone bariatric surgery appear less likely to suffer an aortic dissection than other adults with obesity, researchers say. The finding is the latest in a series of benefits researchers have linked to the surgery, not all of whi...

Sep 9th, 2020 - Ask any trainee in emergency medicine for a list of rapidly fatal conditions, and it is almost certain that acute aortic dissection (AAD) will be near the top. In acute care medicine, AAD is a condition we think about multiple times per day. Emerg...
