Scientists have begun to unravel the genetic basis of deadly thoracic aortic aneurysms and dissections (TAAD). The research identifies rare TAAD-associated mutations in genes that regulate the ...
A recurrent genetic mutation has been linked to deadly thoracic aortic dissections in family members as young as 17 years of age. A multi-institutional team led by Dianna Milewicz, M.D., Ph.D., of The ...
Several published reports have improved our understanding of the benefits and limitations of endovascular technology. That the natural history of the dissected aorta can be altered with an endoluminal ...
Thoracic aortic dissection occurs when the intima of the aorta becomes compromised and “tears” or “dissects” a new layer that fills with blood between the intima and the media. This “false lumen” can ...
