==Overview==
==Overview==
There are approximately 2,000 cases of [[aortic]] dissection in the US per year, and [[aortic]] dissection accounts  for 3-4% of [[sudden deaths]]. The peak [[incidence]] is in the sixth and seventh decades, and males predominate 2:1.
The incidence of aortic dissection is approximately 6 per 100,000 individuals worldwide.The incidence of aortic dissection increases with age, with a mean age of 63 years.*Men are more commonly affected by aortic dissection than women. However, the prognosis tends to be worse in women due to unusual presentations. There is no racial predilection to aortic dissection. The 30-days mortality rate of aortic dissection type A and B is approximately 47% and 13%, respectively.
==Epidemiology and Demographics==
==Epidemiology and Demographics==
===Age===
The highest [[incidence]] of [[aortic]] dissection is in individuals who are 50 to 70 years old. Half of dissections in females before age 40 occur during [[pregnancy]] (typically in the [[3rd trimester]] or early [[postpartum]] period). Patients with type I dissection present approximately 6 years younger than those with type II or type II dissection.
===Gender===
The [[incidence]] is twice as high in males as in females (male-to-female ratio is 2:1).

Overview

The incidence of aortic dissection is approximately 6 per 100,000 individuals worldwide.The incidence of aortic dissection increases with age, with a mean age of 63 years.*Men are more commonly affected by aortic dissection than women. However, the prognosis tends to be worse in women due to unusual presentations. There is no racial predilection to aortic dissection. The 30-days mortality rate of aortic dissection type A and B is approximately 47% and 13%, respectively.
