title: [Total replacement of the ascending aorta with reimplantation of the coronary arteries. Technic and indications].
abstract: Our experience with nine total replacement of the ascending aorta with reimplantation of the coronary arteries has led us to advocate this as the technique of choice for curative treatment of ascending aortic aneurysms when these involve the sinus of Valsalva, and of acute dissecting aneurysms of the aorta when the tear in the intima is situated in the ascending portion. An endo-aneurysmal approach simplifies the operation and considerably reduces the blood loss during surgery.
