title: [A successful treatment of Cabrol's procedure for annuloaortic ectasia with an acute aortic dissection (Stanford type A)].
abstract: A 67-year-old female who has an Annuloaortic ectasia with an acute aortic dissection was urgently admitted to our hospital. She was also suspected to have developed into an acute cardiac tamponade. An aortic dissection was arised from just above the right coronary artery orific and extended to the innominate artery and the right common carotid artery. In this case Cabrol's procedure with cerebral perfusion technique was considered to be a good indication, but standard Cabrol's procedure provided almost satisfactory results without utilizing a cerebral perfusion technique because disappearance of pressure difference between both hands and the right common carotid artery after reconstruction. Her postoperative course was uneventful and aortography confirmed competence of the prosthetic valve, good patency of the coronary arteries without false aneurysm formation. Cabrol's procedure is a reliable method for Annulo-aortic ectasia especially with an acute aortic dissection of the ascending aorta.
