Abstract

Despite its higher prevalence among men, women with thoracic aortic aneurysm and dissection (TAAD) have lower rates of treatment and surgical intervention and often have worse outcomes. A growing number of women with TAAD also desire pregnancy, which can be associated with an increased risk of aortic complications. Understanding sex-specific differences in TAAD has the potential to improve care delivery, reduce disparities in treatment, and optimize outcomes for women with TAAD.
