[Extra-anatomic ascending-supraceliac aortic bypass in treatment of complex or recurrent aortic isthmus stenosis]. / Der extra-anatomische aszendens-suprazöliakale Aortenbypass in der Behandlung der komplexen oder rezidivierenden Aortenisthmusstenosen.

Several surgical approaches have been reported for operative correction of complex or recurrent form of aortic coarctation. In this study we report our experience with extra-anatomic ascending-supraceliac abdominal bypass grafting for complicated form of aortic coarctation in 12 patients. All patients survived the operations, without late mortality. This type of surgical correction of complex or recurrent form of coarctation is a safe and effective procedure.
