18. Hypothermic circulatory arrest does not increase the risk of ascending thoracic aortic aneurysm resection.
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to investigate the safety and efficacy of a period of deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (DHCA) during elective replacement of the ascending thoracic aorta. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA: DHCA has been implemented in ascending thoracic aortic aneurysm resection whenever the anatomy or pathology of the aorta or arch vessels

19. Surgical Treatment of Multiple Mycotic Aneurysms in the Ascending Aorta, Aortic Arch, and Descending Aorta
We report a clinical case of multiple mycotic aneurysms, in the ascending aorta, aortic arch, and descending aorta. The patient underwent surgery to replace the ascending aorta and aortic arch by means of a highly modified “elephant trunk” technique and with the aid of arterial cannulation from the right subclavian artery, which provided antegrade cerebr

20. Aneurysms of the thoracic aorta
Selected radiographs from 40 patients with thoracic aortic aneurysm serve to illustrate most of the radiographic features of this disease. Surgical techniques are outlined and were used to modify the natural course of the disease in 14 patients, with three postoperative deaths. The remaining 26 patients were either moribund on admission and died shortly afte

21. Two-Stage Elephant Trunk Reconstruction for Aneurysm of an Aberrant Right Subclavian Artery in Association with Aneurysmal Distal Aortic Arch and Descending Thoracic Aorta
Surgical treatment of the combination of aneurysms of an aberrant right subclavian artery, distal aortic arch, and descending thoracic aorta requires control of structures in both the right and the left hemithorax. We report a 2-stage surgical approach. The 1st stage, performed through a median sternotomy, consists of an elephant trunk reconstruction and an

22. Treatment of Descending Thoracic Aneurysm with an Intraaortic Occluder
Elective treatment of descending thoracic aneurysms involves direct surgery, with Dacron graft replacement of the diseased aortic segment. When the patient's condition contraindicates major surgery, however, the surgeon should consider using an extraanatomic approach—implanting an ascending aorta-to-abdominal aorta Dacron bypass graft in a ventral position

23. Use of Selective Hypothermia to Protect the Spinal Cord during Resection of Thoracoabdominal Aneurysms
Neurologic complications remain a threat to patients after repair of thoracoabdominal thoracic aneurysms. We have recently used a simple technique of selective hypothermia during such repairs in 7 high-risk patients. None of the patients had neurologic complications. In the 1st patient, we used cardiopulmonary bypass, but we have subsequently found that the

24. Juxtarenal Aortic Aneurysm after Successful Repair of Ruptured Infrarenal Aneurysm
Eight months after successful repair of a ruptured infrarenal aneurysm, a 50-year-old hypertensive male patient was found to have a 2nd aneurysm restricted to the juxtarenal segment of the aorta, and not in continuity with the infrarenal lesion. While there have been reports both of true aneurysms arising independently in the abdominal (infrarenal) and thora
