  • Title: Use of apical suction to facilitate extra-anatomic bypass for recurrent coarctation: a case report.
    Author: Kuduvalli M, Monaghan C, Fabri BM.
    Journal: J Cardiothorac Surg; 2006 Mar 28; 1():9. PubMed ID: 16722523.
    Abstract:
    The use of apical suction devices has been well described for maintaining satisfactory haemodynamics during off-pump surgical coronary revascularization. Its expanded use has been described in a few other situations. We describe here a case of recurrent coarctation where an extra-anatomic ascending to descending thoracic aorta bypass graft was constructed using cardiopulmonary bypass without arresting the heart, and access and exposure were facilitated by the use of an apical suction device.
