Abstract

This review provides a general overview of the consensus statement from the 2010 more recent updates AHA/ACC Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Management of Patients with Thoracic Aortic Disease, and highlights current practice patterns. The suggestions herein are intended to facilitate clinical decision making in the management of thoracic aortic disease. The main intent of this report is to highlight screening, surveillance, initial and definitive management of thoracic aortic disease, and special populations that should be considered.
