[A case of ruptured pseudoaneurysm of the aortic arch associated with hemoptysis and hoarseness].
We experienced a case of the ruptured pseudoaneurysm of the aortic arch. Patient complained left anterior chest pain, back pain and hoarseness. Considering the past history of pulmonary tuberculosis, emergency operation was performed median sternotomy approach and using aortic occlusion balloon catheter method and selective cerebral perfusion. Woven dacron graft was anastomosis intraluminal aneurysm. Postoperative course was good. Median sternotomy approach and AOBC method were better than intercostal approach method, because of a little bleeding, short operative time and method.
