Overview
Atherosclerosis and hypertension are associated with spontaneous dissection, while blunt trauma injury and sudden deceleration in a motor vehicle accident is a major cause of aortic dissection.
Causes
Common Causes
- Atherosclerosis
- Cardiac procedures related
- Chest trauma
- Connective tissue disorders
- Hypertension
- Vasculitis[1]
