  • Title: Novel technique for arch and visceral artery debranching using ascending aortic inflow.
    Author: Mussa FF, Walkes JC, Lumsden AB, Reardon MJ.
    Journal: Vascular; 2008; 16(5):275-8. PubMed ID: 19238869.
    Abstract:
    Aortic arch aneurysms extending proximally to the left subclavian artery have traditionally been approached through a median sternotomy and a staged elephant trunk procedure requiring a left thoracotomy or thoracoabdominal incision. We describe a novel technique for repair of such aneurysms in a single-stage, hybrid approach using bypass grafts arising from the ascending aorta to all arch and upper abdominal visceral arteries followed by endovascular exclusion of the aortic aneurysm.
