    Abstract:
    The successful implementation of a reoperative Bentall procedure with concomitant total aortic arch replacement after ascending aortic replacement for acute aortic dissection is infrequently reported. We performed a modified Bentall procedure with total replacement of the aortic arch in a patient suffering from worsening aortic regurgitation (AR) and residual dissection. Our strategy involved the button method for coronary reconstruction, selective cerebral perfusion, the use of a composite graft with four branches for aortic arch replacement, and the administration of high-dose aprotinin to decrease bleeding.
