  • Title: [A case report of a successful surgery for thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm under partial cardiopulmonary bypass with selective perfusion of major abdominal branches].
    Author: Abe M, Sakai A, Hanayama N, Lin ZB, Oosawa M.
    Journal: Kyobu Geka; 1996 Nov; 49(12):1010-3. PubMed ID: 8937004.
    Abstract:
    A 69-year-old man showed gradually developing thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm (TAAA) after coronary artery bypass grafting. The patient underwent graft replacement of TAAA uneventfully under partial cardiopulmonary bypass with selective perfusion of major abdominal branches. The major abdominal branches and two pairs of intercostal arteries were reconstructed. The patient showed no organ failure or spinal damage postoperatively. Partial cardiopulmonary bypass with selective perfusion of abdominal branches successfully protected both the visceral organs and the spinal cord from ischemia in a TAAA surgery.
