Abstract
In TAAAD patients without change of postoperative false lumen status, completely patent false lumen presents faster aortic growth and more patients with growth rate > 5 mm/year. False lumen status does not correlate with late survival. Here we provide an insight into persistent postoperative false lumen in TAAAD patients and may help cast light on aortic dissection in this specific subgroup to improve their late outcomes.
