Spontaneous Resolution of a Descending Aortic Dissection

Spontaneous resolution of aortic dissection is extremely rare and only a few cases have reported. We report on the case of an elderly man who presented with DeBakey type III aortic dissection, which was resolved spontaneously over two years after antihypertensive treatment. We also discuss the possible mechanism and the role of conservative management.
