Initial aortic repair versus medical therapy for early uncomplicated type B dissections
Aggressive pre-emptive endovascular therapy though has acceptable outcomes and positive aortic remodelling in early uncomplicated type B dissection with maximal aortic diameter ≤ 45mm. However, it could not translate into better mid-term survival than conservative therapy, but with higher risk of 30-day acute kidney injury. Aggressive pre-emptive endovascular intervention should be cautious in these patients.
