Conclusion
This work deals with a very rare association between the
depressurization of a commercial plane and a Stanford-type A AAD. Our
hypothesis is that cabin depressurization served as a trigger for the
development of AAD, which is supported by the fact that the ascending
aorta diameter is normal for age.
