title: [Treatment of recent traumatic ruptures of aortic isthmus (author's transl)].
abstract: We recommand the following procedure: --positionment of the patient allowing the simultaneous approach of left pleural cavity and left femoral vessels. --aortic liberation far away of the isthm, in a diffuse hematoma. --medullar protection by femoro-femoral extra corporeal circulation. --recovery of aortic continuity either by direct suture or by interposition of an prosthetic tube, the sutures being largely supported by mediastinal cellular tissue. We have used this technique in 5 patients, with a good result in all cases.
