Role of follow-up tomographic imaging on long-term outcome. Kaplan-Meier curve analysis of 243 patients after surgical repair of acute type A aortic dissection showed that those 95 individuals (39%) who did not undergo tomographic follow-up imaging at tertiary surgical centers had an increased probability of late death (P<0.001; A) and a decreased probability for the detection of late aortic events (P<0.001; B).
