- This is the first and only randomised controlled trial to investigate the optimal management of patients with acute uncomplicated type B aortic dissection. This is a highly complex clinical condition with large variations in clinical practice and outcomes globally. The trial (NCT00742274) demonstrated the safety of using stent-grafts in this patient group (0% 30d-mortality) and provided evidence endovascular repair promotes aortic healing (doi.org/10.1016/j.ejvs.2014.05.012). It was initiated and designed by KCL and the work is featured in UpToDate (https://www.uptodate.com/contents/surgical-and-endovascular-management-of-acute-type-b-aortic-dissection) and Cochrane Library (doi.org/10.1002/14651858.CD006512.pub2) guidance
