Research continually expands the evidence base related to the assessment, diagnosis, and management of patients with aortic dissection. In addition, new technologies and new devices are expanding the therapeutic choices available. These include improvements in hybrid, endovascular, and conventional open surgical repair, which represent the current mainstay of treatment for aortic dissection. The data on these expanded technologies make it difficult for busy practitioners and surgeons to remain up to date on their knowledge and their best use in clinical practice. This interdisciplinary case based activity will provide an in-depth review and analysis of current state-of-the-art practices in the management of patients with aortic dissection. The program is designed to engage learners in debates, discussion, and clinical decision making to share best practices with expert faculty from some of the world’s leading multi-disciplinary aorta centers.
