  • Title: Pulmonary artery partition: new method for correction of interrupted aortic arch.
    Author: Utley JR, Swain JA, Higgins CB, Kashani IA.
    Journal: J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg; 1983 Aug; 86(2):309-11. PubMed ID: 6876868.
    Abstract:
    We have successfully corrected interrupted aortic arch with ventricular septal defect by employing deep hypothermia and circulatory arrest, a median sternotomy incision, and a pulmonary arteriotomy. This simplified technique has the advantage of an abbreviated period of cerebral ischemia, with a relatively simple partitioning of the pulmonary artery.
