Postoperative mortality after aortic dissection

Aortic coarctation is a condition in which the blood in the aortic cavity enters the aortic intima from the tear in the aortic intima, separating the intima and expanding along the long axis of the aorta, creating a separation of the true and false chambers of the aortic wall, a condition that is very dangerous and has a high mortality rate. However, after aortic coarctation surgery, the mortality rate of the patients will be greatly reduced to about 5% to 10%, especially for more than five years, the survival rate of more than 95%, and generally can live like a normal person after the operation. However, the mortality rate for those who do not undergo surgery is more than 80%.
