Area of Science:

  • Cardiovascular Surgery
  • Thoracic Surgery
  • Aortic Surgery

Background:

  • Traditional surgical approaches like median sternotomy and lateral thoracotomy have limitations in accessing extensively diseased distal aortic arch.
  • Achieving distal anastomosis can be particularly challenging in complex aortic arch pathologies.

Observation:

  • A case report detailing an extended aortic arch replacement combined with coronary artery bypass grafting is presented.
  • The L-incision approach was utilized to overcome the limitations of conventional methods.

Findings:

  • The L-incision approach facilitated successful extended aortic arch replacement and concurrent coronary artery bypass.
  • This technique provided adequate access for distal anastomosis in a complex aortic arch case.
