Infected aortic pseudoaneurysm at the site of a proximal mechanical anastomosic connector following off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting: case report.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We describe a patient who underwent off-pump coronary artery bypass graft surgery performed with an aortic connector. The patient developed a malignant deep sternal wound infection that subsequently led to an aortic pseudoaneurysm at the site of proximal anastomosis.

Avoidance of Dialysis in an End-Stage Renal Disease Patient Status-post Off-pump Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting
Certain benefits are clearly associated with the use of off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) as compared with the on-pump CABG. The superiority is more evident in patients with multiple co morbidities including renal failure.We reviewed the medical records of a 67-year-old male with a past medical history that was significant for multiple cardiovascular diseases and new-onset end-sta...
متن کاملEarly results of aortic connector system for proximal anastomosis of the saphenous vein graft.
PURPOSE Our objective is to clarify the technical points in using the symmetry aortic connector system (ACS) compared with hand-sewing from clinical and angiographic results of the patients who underwent off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). METHODS Among 84 patients who underwent CABG from January 2002 to August 2003, 36 off-pump CABGs were performed using at least one saphenous v...
متن کاملA case of ostial stenosis with the PAS-Port proximal anastomosis system in off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting.
The use of an automatic aortic connector device for proximal saphenous vein graft anastomoses eliminates the need for aortic clamping during off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting and may reduce the incidence of stroke in the elderly and in patients with severe aortic atherosclerosis. The PAS-Port proximal anastomotic system is a recently developed sutureless automatic saphenous vein graft an...
متن کاملA surgical case report of off-pump onlay patch grafting for pseudoaneurysm with diffusely calcified coronary artery.
Coronary pseudoaneurysm usually occurs after catheter-based intervention as a result of traumatic dissection or perforation of a coronary artery in 4%-5% of cases. Here, we report the successful case of pseudoaneurysm occurring after percutaneous coronary angioplasty (PTCA) against the severely calcified coronary artery treated with off-pump long onlay patch bypass technique using internal thor...
