M. Pasic et al., EXTRA-ANATOMICAL ASCENDING-SUPRACELIAC AO RTIC BYPASS IN THE TREATMENT OF COMPLEX OR RECURRENT AORTIC COARCTATION, Helvetica chirurgica acta, 60(3), 1993, pp. 447-450
Several surgical approaches have been reported for operative correctio
n of complex or recurrent form of aortic coarctation. In this study we
report our experience with extra-anatomic ascending-supraceliac abdom
inal 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 coa
rctation is a safe and effective procedure.
