Abstract
This study aimed to address the shortcomings of previous clinical trials that were inadequate to prove the superiority of thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) in managing type B aortic dissection (TBAD) over open surgery (OS) or best medical treatment (BMT). The comparative effectiveness of these three treatments was analyzed using data of the National Inpatient Sample, a large U.S. database including patients from 4378 hospitals.
