Abstract
HR was shown to be associated with preoperative high fibrinogen levels, a smoking habit, and a preoperative diagnosis of chronic, but not acute, aortic dissection, with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease as comorbidity. Administration of antithrombin III resolved HR in all of the affected patients, even when their preoperative antithrombin III level was within the normal limit.
