The death rate is much higher when a patient shows up with AD and the aorta has already ruptured (torn) with or inadequate blood flow to their brain, intestine, kidneys or legs. This leads to death of those organs and patients’ lives would be a much higher risk

Complicated aortic section, if untreated, will be fatal. This will be one of two reasons. Either there's a rupture of the aorta and the patient will bleed, or there is inadequate blood flow to an important organ in the body, whether it's the intestine, the kidney, or the leg. If untreated, these organs will die, and the patient will subsequently die from these organs being dead. So it's really important to diagnose it quickly, early, and accurately in order to provide prompt treatment for any of those complications. you
