Overview
Atherosclerosis and hypertension are associated with spontaneous aortic dissection, while blunt trauma and sudden deceleration in a motor vehicle accident are major causes of traumatic aortic dissection.
Causes
Common Causes
The most common causes of aortic dissection include:[1][2][3][4][5]
- Atherosclerosis
- Chest trauma
- Chronic hypertension
- Complication of cardiac procedures
- Connective tissue disorders
- Vasculitis
