Background The aim of this study was to determine the role of ascending aortic length and diameter in type A aortic dissection. Methods and Results Computed tomography scans from patients with acute type A dissections (n=51), patients with proximal thoracic aortic aneurysms (n=121), and controls with normal aortas (n=200) were analyzed from aortic annulus to the innominate artery using multiplanar reconstruction. In the control group, ascending aortic length correlated with diameter (r2=0.35, P |
