  • Title: Transapical Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair as a Bridge to Open Repair of an Infected Ascending Aortic Pseudoaneurysm.
    Author: Shults CC, Chen EP, Thourani VH, Leshnower BG.
    Journal: Ann Thorac Surg; 2015 Nov; 100(5):1883-6. PubMed ID: 26522532.
    Abstract:
    Pseudoaneurysms of the ascending aorta pose a significant risk for free rupture during open aortic repair. This report describes the use of a modified thoracic aortic stent graft, delivered through transapical access, as a successful bridge to homograft replacement of the ascending aorta for the treatment of a mycotic ascending aortic pseudoaneurysm.
