A 46-year-old man presented with large bilateral aneurysm of the axillary arteries combined with Marfan syndrome. Treatment consisted of axillary aneurysm resection and vessel replacement. Postoperative computed tomographic angiography confirmed good flow in the bilateral axillary artery, and the patient recovered without complication.
This paper reported 3 cases of ascending aortic dissecting aneurysm treated by modified Cabrol's operation. An 8 mm Gore-Tex connected with coronary arteries was employed to prevent high tension, intimal tearing and bleeding of anastomosis. Unremoved aneurysmal wall used as a sac for enclosing conduit graft could minimize the bleeding and oozing so that leaked blood can be drained to right atrium via a bypass.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
