Follow-up of incidentally detected mild to moderate ascending aortic dilation and risk factors for rapid progression in a Swedish middle-aged population
Progression of mild to moderate ascending aortic dilation was in general slow. Our findings emphasise the benefit of home BP measurements over office BP and underline the importance of BP control in subjects with a dilated ascending aorta.
