The term acute aortic syndrome (AAS), coined several years ago, is now widely recognised. In the light of new findings in aortic pathology and in an era when modern imaging techniques are widely available and interventional management of AAS is increasing, some morphological and diagnostic aspects of acute aortic pathology have been examined and the syndrome updated. This article provides a new, comprehensive overview of the pathology, diagnosis, evolution and management of patients with AAS. As acute aortic disease is the most common fatal condition in patients with chest pain, prompt recognition and treatment is of paramount importance.
急性主动脉综合征（AAS）这一术语几年前被提出，现在已被广泛认可。鉴于主动脉病理学的新发现，以及现代影像学技术广泛应用和 AAS 的介入治疗不断增加的时代背景，急性主动脉病理学的一些形态和诊断方面已经得到了检查，并且该综合征也得到了更新。本文提供了关于 AAS 患者病理、诊断、演变和治疗的新的、全面的概述。由于急性主动脉疾病是胸痛患者最常见的致命疾病，因此及时识别和治疗至关重要。
