Aortic dissection may induce a systemic inflammatory reaction. The etiological backgrounds for elevation of the white blood cell count remain to be clarified. In 466 patients with acute type A aortic dissection treated surgically within 48 hours of symptom onset, the etiologic background of an elevated admission white blood cell count and the effect of such elevation on outcomes were assessed retrospectively. Patients' white blood cell count differed significantly in relation to the extent of dissection, with a median (25th, 75th percentile) white blood cell count of 10.4 (8.1, 13.9) x 103/μL for dissection confined to the ascending aorta, 10.5 (8.2,13.) 103/μL for dissection extending to the aortic arch/descending aorta, 11.1 (8.2, 13.7) x 103/μL for extension to the abdominal aorta, and 13.3 (9.8, 15.9) x 103/μL for extension to the iliac artery (p |
