Abstract

Objective To explore the CT manifestations and study the value in diagnosing type Ⅲb aortic dissection.Methods CT scanning was performed in 16 cases with type-Ⅲb aortic dissection.The imaging findings were analyzed retrospectively.Results All the cases survived beyond 5 years,12 cases were showed crescent-shaped valve,the false lumen in left was obtained in 15 cases,thrombosis in 9 cases were demonstrated in false lumen and 6 cases showed leakage complications.Conclusion The rate of five years survival is high in cases with type-Ⅲb aortic dissection.CT feature of type-Ⅲb aortic dissection is the crescent-shaped valve with the false lumen in the left.
