  • Title: False aneurysm of the ascending aorta following cannulation.
    Author: Galamai G, Falugiani F, Colafranceschi M, Dellocchio T, Manetti A, Vergassola R, Dolara A.
    Journal: Acta Cardiol; 1977; 32(3):225-8. PubMed ID: 303857.
    Abstract:
    The development of a false aneurysm of the ascending aorta following arteriotomy and cannulation of the aorta performed during closure of a ventricular septal defect is described. The evidence suggest that the sutures of the arteriotomy led to rupture of the aortic wall and secondarily late formation of a false aneurysm.
