title: [A case report of simultaneous procedure of Cabrol's operation and aortic arch replacement: method to reduce the duration of ischemic cardiac arrest].
abstract: A 57-year-old female underwent simultaneous Cabrol's operation and aortic arch replacement for aortic dissection. She was admitted with complaint of back pain. Aortography demonstrated acute dissecting aneurysm of the ascending, arch and descending aorta (DeBakey type I) as well as aortic valve regurgitation (Seller's II degree). The operation was undertaken using cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) under hypothermia with selective cerebral perfusion. A new method to reduce the duration of ischemic cardiac arrest was applied. Initially a low-porosity woven Dacron tube graft (8 mm) was anastomosed to coronary arteries. Blood of CPB was perfused to this graft. This coronary perfusion contributed to shorten ischemic cardiac arrest time and cardiac function was favorable. This method to reduce the duration of ischemic cardiac arrest brought about good result.
