Abstract:
Aortic graft infections(AGI) are uncommon complications of aortic surgery, although they carry a high mortality. Due to its special anatomical location, the thoracic aorta has less surrounding covered tissue. Once the graft infection occurs, the condition is often more dangerous. Therefore, the treatment of AGI of thoracic aorta is particularly important. This article reviews the surgical treatment of thoracic aorta graft infections.
