At ��ɫtv Langone, doctors and surgeons collaborate to quickly determine the best treatment for an aortic dissection, which is a tear in the wall of the aorta, the largest artery in the body. Because some types of aortic dissections require emergency surgery, our experts work to accurately diagnose the condition and determine the best treatment as quickly as possible.

Our cardiothoracic surgeons and vascular surgeons perform innovative procedures through our ��ɫtv Langone Heart programs, including the Aortic Center. Our surgeons are experts in surgical treatment for aortic dissection, including endovascular and open surgery. Experts at the Joan and Joel Smilow Cardiac Prevention and Rehabilitation Center provide rehabilitation services designed for people who have had surgery for cardiovascular conditions, including aortic dissection.
