  • Title: Pulmonary autograft patch aortoplasty for reconstruction of an interrupted aortic arch associated with an aortopulmonary window.
    Author: Tateishi A, Kawada M.
    Journal: Gen Thorac Cardiovasc Surg; 2009 Jan; 57(1):37-9. PubMed ID: 19160010.
    Abstract:
    We present here an infant with an aortopulmonary window associated with an interrupted aortic arch. Single-stage repair with a pulmonary autograft patch for augmentation of the interrupted aortic arch repair was performed. Transpulmonary patch closure was used to repair the aortopulmonary window. A computed tomography scan at the 1-month follow-up demonstrated a reconstructed aortic arch without obstruction, kinking, or any sign of bronchial or branch pulmonary artery compression.
