A modified frozen elephant trunk hybrid device to facilitate supra-aortic trunk anastomosis.
2020
Reimplantation of the supra-aortic vessels can be challenging with Thoraflex Hybrid. A device modification made the vessel lengths more appropriate and the position of the neo-vessels in the chest avoided malpositioning and kinking and facilitated sternum closure; this may improve operating times as well as allowing complete and continuous cerebral trivascular perfusion and corrects positioning of the intrathoracic vessels.
