Introduction
• Usually asymptomatic until complication-imaging required for detection and monitoring– Masking diagnostic (CAD, malperfusions)
• Identification of genetic alterations– Potential for early detection– Targeted therapy
![Page 3: Aortic dissection](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022202/587ae33c1a28ab542b8b6caf/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
• Aneurysm:permanent localized dilatation of an artery with at least 50% increase in diameter compared with the expected normal diameter.Covered by all 3 layers
• Aortic dissection:disruption of media layer of aorta with bleeding within and along the wall of aorta

Class I rec.for medical management
• i.v beta blockade titrated to HR<60/min• CCB alternative if beta blocker contra.• After HR controlled,i.v vasodilators to reduce
B.P to a level that maintains organ perfusion• Beta blocker used cautiously in setting of a/c
AR• Vasodilator should not be given prior to rate
control(classIII)

Recommendation for definitive management(classI)
• Ascending aorta involved-emergent surgical repair
• Desc. Aorta involved-managed medically unless lifethreatening complications– Malperfusion syndrome– Progression of dissection– Enlarging aneurysm– Inability to control BP or symptoms
![Page 12: Aortic dissection](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022202/587ae33c1a28ab542b8b6caf/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Recommendations for surgical management(classI)
• Ascending ao.dissection-aneurysmal aorta and proximal extent of dissection should be resected
• Prtially dissected root-repaired with valve resuspension
• Extensive dissection of aortic root-aortic root replacement with a composite graft or with a valve sparing root replacement
• DeBakey type II-entire dissected aorta should be replaced
![Page 13: Aortic dissection](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022202/587ae33c1a28ab542b8b6caf/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
• Use of beta blockers slowed aortic root dilatation(Shores J et al;nejm 1994,Ladouceur M et al;Am J Cardiol 2007)
• Beta blockers reduced aortic dilatation in c/c type B dissection(Genoni M et al;2001)
• ACEI perindopril-reduced aortic root dilatation in marfans(Ahimastos AA et al;JAMA2007)
• ARB-reduced aortic root dilatation in Marfans syn(Brooks BS et al;nejm2008)
• Statin use a/w decreased long term mortality in abd aortic aneurysm(Diehm N et al;2008)
![Page 14: Aortic dissection](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022202/587ae33c1a28ab542b8b6caf/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Thoracic aortic aneurysms
• Rec.for medical Rx:classI– Antihypertensives to a goal<140/90(goal<130/80 for
DM&CKD)– Beta blocker in Marfans syn.&aortic aneurysm– Smoking cessation
• classIIa-– Reduce B.P to the lowest point pt can tolerate with
beta blocker and ACEI or ARB– ARB (losartan) for pt with Marfans syn.– Treatment with statin to target LDL-C<70mg%

Acute aortic syndromes
• Consists of 3 conditions-aortic dissection,IMH,PAU
• 15% of AoD have an IMH without an intimal tear
• Incidence 2-3.5/1,00,000 person years• Mean age of presentation 63yrs• Male predominance-65%
![Page 27: Aortic dissection](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022202/587ae33c1a28ab542b8b6caf/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)

• Subacute-b/w 2-6wks• Chronic->6 wks
![Page 28: Aortic dissection](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022202/587ae33c1a28ab542b8b6caf/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
• DeBakey classification:– Type I: Dissection originates in Asc.aorta and
propagates to include at least the aortic arch– Type II: Dissection originates in and confined to the
Asc.aorta– Type III: Dissection originates in the desc.aorta and
propagates most often distally• Stanford classification system– Type A:dissections involving the asc.aorta regardless
of the site of origin– Type B:dissections that do not involve the asc.aorta
![Page 29: Aortic dissection](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022202/587ae33c1a28ab542b8b6caf/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

Recommendations for screening tests(classI)
• STEMI in ECG should be treated as primary cardiac event without delay for aortic imaging unless pt. is high risk
• Low and intermediate risk patients should be screened by CXR-– Findings s/o aortic d/s-definitive aortic imaging– Alternate diagnosis-manage accordingly
• High risk patients should directly undergo TEE,CT or MRI
• Class III- negative CXR should not delay definitive aortic imaging in high risk pt
![Page 34: Aortic dissection](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022202/587ae33c1a28ab542b8b6caf/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Diagnostic imaging studies(classI)
• Selection of imaging modality based on pt variables and institutional capabilities
