| Abstract | Patients with acute aortic dissection, the dominant condition in acute aortic syndromes, have a high mortality [1]. Within types of thoracic aortic dissection, the more extensive the TAD the worse the prognosis [2]. Thus, factors influencing the extent of the TAD are important considerations. The initial presentation of acute aortic dissection is severe chest pain and hypertension. The presence of hypertension is a key element of thoracic aortic dissection (TAD) [3]. The hypertension in acute aortic syndromes is often severe and difficult to treat. From another perspective, a significant proportion of patients presenting to the emergency department with hypertensive crisis with severe blood pressure elevations have an aortic dissection [4]. |
