A schematic cross-section of a large elastic artery demonstrates an aortic dissection. Blood has entered through an intimal tear, separating the intima from the media and forming a dissecting flap that divides the true lumen (TL) from a false lumen (FL). The layered aortic wall—intima, media, and adventitia—is simplified, and a side branch artery emerges near the flap. In cardiovascular anatomy and pathology, this illustrates the mechanism underlying flow diversion, branch malperfusion, and structural compromise of the aortic wall.
