Can you use TIBA for an aortic dissection? So, typically, aortic dissections are treated conservatively until they, until patients develop complications. Complications can be visceral malperfusion, which means that there is a lack of blood flow to the to the visceral arteries or the renal arteries or the patients have high blood pressure that is not that is not responding to medication or patients have persistent pain.
