Article Synopsis
  • Genetic studies reveal that aortic dissection is influenced by multiple genes, indicating it is a multi-gene disorder.
  • Researchers have identified specific genes linked to the development of aortic dissection using microarray screenings and testing for gene mutations.
  • The findings suggest that genetic predispositions and changes play a significant role in the pathogenesis and natural history of aortic dissection.
