    Author: Ghosh J, Ashleigh R, Baguneid M.
    Journal: Eur J Vasc Endovasc Surg; 2009 Dec; 38(6):755-7. PubMed ID: 19836273.
    Abstract:
    Management of symptomatic multifocal supra-aortic atherosclerotic disease presents a complex surgical challenge. We describe a novel approach where a temporary extra-corporeal femoro-carotid shunt was used to maintain cerebral perfusion during hybrid surgical and endovascular treatment for tandem supra-aortic lesions.
