title: [Postoperative aneurysms of the thoracic aorta].
abstract: An examination of 15 patients with postoperative aneurysms of the thoracic aorta was performed. The aneurysms were formed approximately within 15.6 years after operations on the thoracic aorta: for coarctation of the aorta--9 patients, aorta aneurysms--3 patients, open arterial ducts--1 patients, stenosing aortitis--2 patients. Operations were made on 13 patients, 2 patients were not operated upon. In 12 patients moderate hypothermia was used, one patient was operated under conditions of normothermia. The average time of the aorta compression was 42.7 min. Prostheses were used in 9 patients, lateral plasty with a synthetic flap--in 3 patients. Direct anastomosis of the aorta ends after aneurysm resection was used in 1 patient. There were no cases of paraplegia or lethal outcomes. Good results were obtained in all the patients.
