    Abstract:
    From November 1990 to June 1991, 8 patients underwent surgical repair using continuous retrograde cerebral perfusion (CRCP). We evaluated the effect of CRCP from these 8 cases. As a method of CRCP, we perfused with oxygenated blood from SVC canulae with a internal jugular vein pressure of 30-40 cmH2O. Simultaneously systemic perfusion from femoral arterial canulae was performed. At nasopharyngeal temperature of 15-21 degrees C, CRCP time was 46-115 minute. SVC perfusion flow was 280-900 ml/min, and femoral arterial perfusion flow was 450-1,200 ml/min. At 30 minute after starting CRCP, oxygen tension of the blood which was returned to aortic arch was 11-23 mmHg, whereas oxygen tension of the SVC perfusion blood was 210-398 mmHg. In only one patient, transient involuntary movement was seen after operation, but prolonged emergence from anesthesia was not seen. In conclusion, CRCP is considered as an useful method in the operation of the aortic arch.
