    Author: Uchida N, Katayama A, Sutoh M, Sueda T.
    Journal: Interact Cardiovasc Thorac Surg; 2011 Dec; 13(6):682-3. PubMed ID: 21908883.
    Abstract:
    We reported successful distal repair using the frozen elephant trunk technique to treat a mycotic aneurysm extending from the ascending aorta to the descending aorta. A blood culture sample was positive for Escherichia coli, and total arch replacement with a rifampicin-bonded graft covered the omental pedicle flap.
