International Aortic Dissection Registry
The best hope for preventing aortic dissection and recognizing the disease when it occurs is through educating the medical community. Few have survived who have experienced an aortic root dissection, but the friends, loved ones and family members of those who have died can help to increase the awareness of the problem.
