摘要
Purpose of review Acute aortic syndromes include acute aortic dissection, intramural hematoma, and penetrating aortic ulcer, and are associated with high mortality and morbidity. This review focuses on recent findings and current understanding of gender-related and sex-related differences in acute aortic syndromes. Recent findings Large international and national registries, population studies, and multicentre national prospective cohort studies show evidence of sex differences in acute aortic syndromes. Recent studies of risk factors, aorta remodelling, and genetics provide possible biological basis for sex differences. The 2022 American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Management of Aortic Disease revise recommendations for surgical management for aortic root and ascending aorta dilatation, which could impact outcome differences between the sexes. Summary Acute aortic syndromes affect men more frequently than women. The prevalence of acute aortic syndromes and prevalence of many risk factors rise sharply with age in women leading to higher age at presentation for women. Times from symptom onset to presentation and presentation to diagnosis are delayed in female patients. Females with type A dissection are also more commonly treated conservatively than male counterparts. These factors likely contribute to higher early mortality and complications in women.
