An effective strategy for optimizing hemostasis following aortic root replacementt

For patients undergoing aortic root replacement with a prosthetic composite valve graft, bleeding from the annular and coronary artery suture lines remains problematic. The purpose of this article is to describe our current strategy for optimizing hemostatis during composite valve graft placement, which employs several recent modifications, including a double-layered annular suture line.

Dilataçäo aneurismática do segmento de reimplante dos vasos viscerais após correçäo de aneurisma toracoabdominal / Aneurysmal dilation of the reimplant segment of the visceral vessels after thoracoabdominal aneurysm correction

We present a case of aneurysmal dilation of the aortic residual segment, involving abdominal vessels in corrective surgeries for thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm, through the identification of risk groups for recurrent dilation, aiming at using a specific operative technique with a branched graft, to prevent aneurysm relapse
