Assessment of the quality of life comparison between open and endovascular aortic arch surgery: a pilot study [PDF]
Background Advancement in endovascular endografts have paved the way to the possibility of performing endovascular aortic arch repair in recent years. This has started to supersede the need for open aortic arch surgery.

Central aortic versus axillary artery cannulation for aortic arch surgeryCentral MessagePerspective [PDF]
Objective: Central aortic cannulation for aortic arch surgery has become more popular over the last decade; however, evidence comparing it with axillary artery cannulation remains equivocal. This study compares outcomes of patients who underwent axillary

Importance of Acute Anterior Angulation in Double Aortic Arch Needing Attention at Primary Surgery
BackgroundVascular rings are rare congenital abnormalities of the aortic arch. There are many embryological variants including a double aortic arch. In symptomatic children, division of ring and release of airway structures may be sufficient. Persistence

Ascending to descending aortic prosthesis with reimplantation of brachiocephalic vessels in aneurysm of the arch and descending aorta for hypoplasia of the arch and coarctation of the aorta [PDF]
Thoracic aortic aneurysm is one of the most serious pathologies of cardiovascular surgery. Occurrence of an aneurysm in the proximal or distal part of the aortic arch is a recognized complication of uncorrected aortic coarctation and is associated with a

Prenatal Diagnosis of Bovine Aortic Arch Anatomic Variant
Fetal aortic arch development is an early and complex process that depends on many genetic and environmental factors. The final aortic arch varies greatly; it may take the form of a normal arch, anatomic variant (AAAV) with a common origin to that of the

Reconstruction of the Aortic Arch in Newborns and Infants Using an Extended End-to-End Anastomosis
The problem of the effectiveness of obstruction at the level of the aortic arch is still a matter of discus-sion in the modern literature. Traditionally, by excision of the coarctation part, in the presence of hypoplasia, the incision is extended to a ...
