Open Conversion for Type A Ascending Aortic Dissection after Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair by the Chimney Graft Technique.
Annals of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery 2018 June 21
An 83-year-old man with aortic arch aneurysm underwent zone 0 thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) by the chimney graft technique with two supra-aortic arch debranching grafts and developed subacute type A ascending aortic dissection. We performed emergency open conversion with circulatory arrest under deep hypothermia. The tip of the chimney graft (around the sino-tubular junction in the ascending aorta) was stiff, making it difficult to inspect the lumen and perform anastomosis. Deep hypothermic circulatory arrest and cutting the endograft stents to mobilize the graft were necessary for secure anastomosis.
