Aneurysm development after repair of aortic coarctation is not a rare complication, but it is highly related to hypoplasia of the transverse aortic arch.

We propose a single-stage transmediastinal re-repair using moderate hypothermic cardiopulmonary bypass and antegrade selective cerebral perfusion.

Abstract

Aneurysm development after repair of aortic coarctation is not a rare complication, but it is highly related to hypoplasia of the transverse aortic arch. The optimal management of such cases is not clearly established. We propose a single-stage transmediastinal re-repair using moderate hypothermic cardiopulmonary bypass and antegrade selective cerebral perfusion.
