Alternative perfusion technique without axillary artery

J Card Surg · Jul 2013

Case Reports

Alternative perfusion technique without axillary artery cannulation during combined aortic root and total arch replacement.

This report describes an effective cerebral perfusion method using an additional 4th side limb graft sewn to a trifurcated graft in patients undergoing redo aortic root reconstruction combined with total aortic arch replacement. This method is useful in cases where the origin of the innominate artery is unsuitable for clamping or when axillary perfusion is not employed, and assures continuous brain protection and minimizes circulatory arrest time.
