A group of 23 patients with aortic dissection submitted for surgical operation was studied by CT (type I-10, type II-7, Type III-6 patients, according to DeBakey classification). In 9 (56.3%) patients with aortic dissection, type I and III, followed up for 3,5-10 years after surgical intervention the signs of aortic dissection were still visible, and 7 (43.7%) patients after 3-9 years developed thrombotic changes of various intensity in the false aortic lumen. In 2 cases a small external leakage and aneurysmal dilatation of the aorta around the implanted prosthesis were found. Five patients with type II dissection showed no signs of the dissection and other complications, whereas two patients developed aneurysmal dilatation of the aorta around the prosthesis.
