Aortic dissection in childhood and adolescence: an analysis of occurrences over a 10-year interval in New York State.

abstract：:The coronary artery thrombus that causes acute myocardial infarction can be lysed, and reperfusion can be achieved, in the first few hours after infarction. However, the infarct vessel will reocclude in 15-30% of patients, and this event is frequently associated with pain, reinfarction, arrhythmias, or death. The risk...
