Abstract

INTRODUCTION/OBJECTIVES: Aortic dissection is a life-threatening condition in which a tear occurs in the intima of the aorta. There are two types of aortic dissection, Stanford A and B. Stanford B aortic dissection involves the descending aorta and is treated by lowering blood pressure (BP), with sur-gery being reserved for complications, such as malperfusion syndrome.
