Retrograde Cerebral Perfusion in the Surgical Treatment of Ascending Aortic Aneurysm -Report of 4 Cases-

역행성 뇌혈 관류를 이용한 상행대동맥류 수술 -4례 보고-

Abstract

Dissecting aortic aneurysm of ascending aorta is a life threatening condition which requires prompt surgical correction. With deep hypothermic circulatory arrest and retrograde cerebral perfusion via superior vena cava, we could replaced ascending aorta in 4 cases safely. All of 4 cases; femoral artery, right auricle were used as cannulation site. The duration of circulatory arrest were 28, 30, 45, 60 minute in each cases and rectal temperature was 2$0^{\circ}C$ at that time. At the time of retrograde cerebral perfusion, we maintained central venous pressure under 25mmHg. We resected all of dissecting portion and replaced it with Hemashield graft. There were no deaths but two of four reoperated because of bleeding.
