Type B Aortic Dissection Masquerading As Acute Pyelonephritis: Think Beyond Measures.

Aortic dissection (AD) is a life-threatening medical emergency with a high mortality rate if misdiagnosed; therefore, an urgent and precise diagnosis is crucial for prompt treatment.

Herein, we aim to contribute to the existing literature by providing insights into the varied presentations of AD and offering valuable lessons for clinicians faced with similar diagnostic scenarios.
