Despite a decline in aortic dissection and aneurysm mortality rates in the US from 1999 to 2020, reported by the CDC, this improvement disproportionately favors males and Caucasians.

Although Caucasians and males had higher mortality in 1999, their decline is significantly greater. Following current trends, Caucasian and male mortalities will be lower than minority groups by 2026.
