ABSTRACT
A 65-year-old man had received closure of the entry and false lumen Stanford type B acute aortic dissection via left thoratectomy 23 years previously. The patient underwent emergency graft replacement for a ruptured aneurysm of the thoraco-abdominal aorta 10 years previously. Enhanced computed tomography (ECT) revealed that the residual aortic dissection of the distal arch and the descending aorta were dilated. Reoperation via left thoracotomy usually requires a long cardiopulmonary bypass time and intraoperative bleeding. So we selected to perform open stent-grafting through median sternotomy alone, avoiding a left thoracotomy.
