Abstract:
Coronary artery bypass surgery in a 54-year-old female with severe calcified ascending aorta was performed with aortic no touch technique, Extracorporeal circulation with femoral cannulation was performed, and bilateral internal thoracic acteries and gastroepiploic artery were used as grafts under ventricular fibrillation and hypothermia without aortic cross-clamping. No neurological complication was observed and postoperative course was uneventful. We think the aortic no touch technique is safe and reliable in the coronary revascularization with severe calcified aorta.
