Debranching of the arch in aortic aneurysms [PDF]
European Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 2013 We read with interest the surgical approach of Kondoh et al. [1] for the treatment of the distal arch aneurysm. They performed the elephant trunk procedure with undersized grafts instead of using the frozen elephant trunk technique with 10–20% oversized stent grafts.
