A 4-Decade Population-Based Registry of Thoracic Aortic Dissection Causing Sudden Death in the Young
TAD-related SCD in the young is rare, and TAD is an infrequent cause of SCD, affecting mostly men. Symptoms and chronic TAD are common, and a high index of clinical suspicion is needed for timely diagnosis. BAV (primarily the complex-phenotype) and inherited disorders are the most common associated conditions, supporting the role of routine genetic screening in this population.
