What is an Acute Aortic Dissection?

Описание: In this Pill of Knowledge (PoK) video, Professor Artur Evangelista provides an overview of acute aortic syndrome (AAS). This includes aortic dissection (80% of AAS cases), intramural hematoma (IMH; 15% of AAS cases), and penetrating aortic ulcer (5% of AAS cases). Learn about the methods for classification and diagnosis, the imaging techniques used, and the recommended types of surgery and medical treatments for AAS.

Pills of Knowledge are short, expert-led video lessons. To learn more about the HTAD-WG, visit: https://vascern.eu/group/heritable-th...
