Impact of aortic dimensions and pulse pressure on late aneurysm formation in op...

Abstract: Background Patients operated on for type A aortic dissection remain at risk of long-term aneurysm development, the main cause for late death. The aim of this study was to identify early predictors for aneurysm formation at three-years after surgery. Methods A study group of 70 consecutive patients (52 +/- 10 years-old, 41 male), operated on for aortic dissection with replacement of the ascending segme...
