Summary: The goal of this clinical trial is to determine whether an upfront invasive strategy of TEVAR plus medical therapy reduces the occurrence of a composite endpoint of all-cause death or major aortic complications compared to an upfront conservative strategy of medical therapy with surveillance for deterioration in patients with uncomplicated type B aortic dissection.
Eligibility:

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Age > 21 years

2. Patients with a Stanford type B aortic dissection not involving the aorta at or proximal to the innominate artery, without rupture and/or malperfusion syndrome (renal, mesenteric, or extremity) who are within 48 hours to 6 weeks after start of index admission for their type B dissection

4. Ability to provide written informed consent

5. Investigator believes anatomy is suitable for TEVAR

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Ongoing systemic infection

2. Pregnant or planning to become pregnant in the next 3 months

3. Life expectancy related to non-aortic conditions < 2 years

4. Unwilling or unable to comply with all study procedures

5. Known patient history of genetic aortopathy

6. Penetrating Aortic Ulcer without concomitant uTBAD
