dc.description.abstractA study of 35 autopsied cases of aortic dissection collected over a period of 12 years was carried out. There were 25 males and 10 females, and the majority of the dissections presented in fourth to fifth decade of life. Thirty-six dissections were present in 35 cases. Type III was the commonest (50.0%), followed by Type I (41.7%) and Type II (8.3%) dissections. Rupture following acute dissection was the cause of death in 15 patients. In chronic types, the causes of death were not related to dissection. Hypertension, connective tissue disorders and trauma were identified as some of the risk factors.en_US
