  • Title: Aortic valve replacement and coronary bypass in patients with severe stenosis of the left main coronary artery.
    Author: Nugent WC, Weintraub RM, Thurer RL, Levine FH.
    Journal: Ann Thorac Surg; 1983 May; 35(5):562-4. PubMed ID: 6601937.
    Abstract:
    Adequate myocardial protection is difficult to achieve during operations for combined aortic valve disease and severe stenosis of the left main coronary artery. A double cross-clamp technique, which facilitates the delivery of cardioplegic solution to the myocardium, is described here. We reviewed the experiences of 11 patients, 6 of whom underwent operation using the new technique.
