Impact of pulmonary artery intramural hematoma on patients with acute type A aortic dissection.

Acute type A aortic dissection mortality gets worse when pulmonary artery intramural hematoma is present. Pulmonary artery-intramural hematoma increased the risk of early mortality but not affect long-term prognosis. Further research should investigate the effects of pulmonary artery intramural thrombus on aortic dissection.
