Total aortic arch replacement with patent left internal thoracic artery graft after previous coronary artery bypass graft surgery
نویسندگان
چکیده
A 78-year-old man, who had previously undergone coronary artery bypass graft surgery, was admitted to our department for treatment of a distal aortic arch aneurysm. A total aortic arch replacement with a patent left internal thoracic artery (LITA) graft was successfully performed without cardiac ischemic or neurological complications. Use of retrograde cardioplegia with intermittent pressure-augmented retrograde cerebral perfusion without clamping and dissecting the LITA graft were effective in myocardial and cerebral protection.

Outcomes of total aortic arch replacement with coronary artery bypass grafting.
There are few reports regarding outcomes of total aortic arch replacement (TAAR) with concomitant coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). This study aimed to analyze outcomes after total arch replacement with CABG in our institute. Between July 2006 and December 2010, 126 patients underwent elective total arch replacement with or without CABG. Of these patients, 56 had concomitant CABG. The mea...

OBJECTIVE We present operative results of aortic arch aneurysm associated with coronary artery stenosis, and evaluate the operative risk of graft replacement of the aortic arch and concomitant coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). PATIENTS AND METHODS From January 1991 to December 2001, we treated 16 patients with aortic arch aneurysm and coronary artery stenosis. The patients, 3 women and ...
متن کاملAortic Valve Replacement after Previous Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting with Patent Internal Mammary Artery
As the population ages, the number of patients who have undergone previous coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) requiring subsequent aortic valve replacement (AVR) will be increased. AVR is the current standard of therapy in patients with severe aortic valve disease, but is more complex in the context of prior CABG, and redo AVR after prior CABG is associated with a higher mortality than AVR ...

متن کاملContinuous coronary perfusion in redo aortic valve replacement following prior coronary surgery; an old trick for new dogs?
The optimal myocardial protection method for aortic valve replacement in the setting of prior coronary artery bypass surgery remains a subject of debate. Protection is particularly challenging when a patent pedicled internal thoracic artery graft supplies a proximally obstructed left anterior descending artery. Herein, we describe a modification of an old technique; continuous coronary perfusio...
