  • Title: [A new method of surgical treatment of recurrent aortic coarctation (aorto-aortic shunting from the ascending to the descending thoracic aorta)].
    Author: Spiridonov AA, Iaroshchuk AS, Tutov EG, Arakelian VS.
    Journal: Grud Serdechnososudistaia Khir; 1990; (1):38-43. PubMed ID: 2357404.
    Abstract:
    The authors discuss the immediate results of 44 reconstructive operations performed for a second time on the descending thoracic aorta for complications of operative interventions conducted earlier for coarctation of the aorta. The high operative risk is connected with difficulties of rethoracotomy and the need to compress the thoracic aorta for a lengthy period of time. Operation for aorto-aortic shunting through right thoracotomy made it possible to avoid these difficulties. The immediate results of all 9 such operations were good.
