RESUMO
Iatrogenic type A aortic dissection is a life-threatening condition associated with high morbidity and mortality. Traditionally, cannulation of the femoral artery or axillary artery has been preferred for arterial access, but in 2007 a new technique including direct cannulation of the ascending aorta was presented. The technique is known as "samurai cannulation" because of the quick incision of the aorta. It has been shown to be less time-consuming than other techniques, which is favorable in acute situations in patients with hemodynamic instability.
