[Four cases of dissecting aneurysm of the aorta].
Four cases of dissecting aneurysm of the aorta are described. Attention is drawn to the difficulties of clinical diagnosis, the results of which will often be expressed in wide differences of prognosis and sometimes of treatment pattern, including surgical correction in suitable cases. A summary account of the literature data is used in expressing some views on the clinical and aetiopathogenetic position in the light of recent knowledge.
