Abstract

The diagnosis of aortic dissection is often difficult because the symptoms are usually non-specific. AD should be considered in the differential diagnosis of all cases of idiopathic retrosternal pain. Misdiagnosis of AD is a common cause of legal suits in medical practice. Prevention requires a complete and thorough evaluation.
