Research Article: Preoperative Immature Neutrophils Predict Clinical Outcomes in Patients with Uncomplicated Type-B Aortic Dissection After Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair
Introduction:
Aortic dissection (AD) is a life-threatening vascular disease that can involve almost any part of the aorta. Pathological features of AD are always described as medial degeneration with intimal tear and crossing of blood into the artery wall, which ensuing causes the formation of a false lumen. Recently, thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) becomes the optical treatment strategy for type B AD (TBAD). – Although TEVAR achieves superior aortic remodeling and is proven to be better than optical medical therapy…
