Figure 2 Survival rates after surgery for acute aortic dissection. A, Overall patient survival rate. B, Survival rate by gender. Although the age at the time of surgery was similar for women (n = 59; age, 83 years; range, 80–89 years) and men (n = 18; age, 82.5 years; range, 80–87 years; P = .28), women had a slightly better survival rate. However, the difference did not reach statistical significance (P = .3155). CI, Confidence interval; M, men; W, women.
