Women have a comparable incidence of AAD as men, but have higher prehospital mortality. A higher proportion of women w/ OHCA had AAD than men w/ OHCA, w/ the highest proportion in women aged 60 to 69 years, at 16.4%. bit.ly/3rHW7Xp #JACCAdvances #CardioTwitter

Should we start thinking of the aorta as an organ? Dr. Christoph Nienaber summarizes aortic guideline iterations over the years ➡️ algorithms to diagnose and manage acute aortic syndrome. "European & American guidelines agree: multidisciplinary aortic teams!" #EACTS2023

💡The aorta needs to be seen and addressed as an “organ”. Deep discussion about the upcoming EACTS/STS/AATS guidelines on aortic disease at #EACTS2023 📣Focus on family history and genetic factors. Size indexing of utmost importance. @EACTS @STS_CTsurgery @AATSHQ

This is one of the longest follow-ups of patients with Marfan syndrome who underwent valve-sparing root replacement at @PMunkCardiacCtr @UHN @UHN_Surgery @UofT We found low rates of reoperation (7.5% at 20 yrs) but an ongoing risk of late distal aortic dissections (20% at 20yrs

New study of aortic valve sparing operations in 189 patients with #Marfan syndrome followed prospectively for a median of 14 years showed low rate of valve-related events but a constant risk of distal dissections. bit.ly/3RehuK7 #JACC #CardioTwitter @tirone_david

Important data on post-repair outcomes in #MarfanSyndrome from @OuzounianMD and colleagues. Must investigate what protects against late dissections in MFS. @MarfanFdn @judbacke @ShaineMorris1 @ShereneShalhub @naderi @MohammadAZafar @MarkELindsay

1/2🌟New pub alert!🌟 When you see a pt with #TAA, is age the first thing u note? In this study, we found that what is truly relevant for predicting TAA growth is not chronological age, but rather ARTERIAL age. Because the aorta is #NotJustAPipe ! bit.ly/3KHWszt #AortaEd

Perez et al find aortic diameter at the time of type A dissection is consistent with the new guidelines that recommend surgical intervention at 5.0 cm. Type B dissection occurs at small sizes and cannot be prevented with a size criterion. Read more: doi.org/10.1016/j.atho…
