Total resection of an infected aortic arch aneurysm caused by Mycobacterium avium: a case report
Background Infected aortic arch aneurysms caused by Mycobacterium avium are rare in immunocompetent individuals. Promptly recognizing these aneurysms is important because delays in treatment result in aneurysm rupture and a high fatality rate.

Total arch replacement for aortic arch aneurysm with coexisting middle aortic syndrome
Middle aortic syndrome (MAS) combined with thoracic aortic aneurysm (TAA) is a rare vascular disease. One stage open surgery to treat this condition, becomes a challenge for our cardiovascular surgery.A 69-year-old man presented with a saccular type aortic arch aneurysm, shaggy aorta and severe atherosclerotic stenosis of the thoracoabdominal aorta ...

Total aortic arch replacement with frozen elephant trunk (Thoraflex). [PDF]
The Thoraflex hybrid prosthesis represents the latest evolution of the classic frozen elephant trunk (FET) (Figure 1A,B) prosthesis. It provides a multi-branched, arch hybrid graft that potentially allows treating (for specific indications and in a single surgical step), complex lesions of the thoracic aorta by combining endovascular treatment with ...
