N2 - BACKGROUND: Aortic intramural hematoma (IMH) is a variant of overt aortic dissection. The predictors of progression of IMH to dissection and rupture are still unknown, and strategies for management are not established.METHODS AND RESULTS: A multicenter study was conducted comprising 66 patients with IMH and hospital admission CONCLUSIONS: Regardless of aortic diameter, IMH of the ascending aorta (type A) is at high risk for early progression, and, thus, undelayed surgical repair should be performed. Moreover, oral beta-blocker therapy may improve long-term prognosis of IMH independent of anatomical location.
