Aortic dissection in children: case report and literature review
The prognosis of children with aortic dissection after treatment is generally better than that of adults. In pediatric emergency settings, persistent chest pain that does not alleviate and cannot be attributed to common illnesses warrants heightened suspicion of aortic dissection. Surgical treatment should be promptly performed once the condition is diagnosed.
