title: Repair of intraoperative aortic dissection associated with malperfusion syndrome using a combination of open and endovascular techniques.
abstract: Intraoperative aortic dissection is a rare but potentially fatal complication of cardiac surgery. In this report, we present a case of intraoperative aortic dissection that was complicated by intestinal ischaemia. The aorta was successfully repaired using both open and endovascular techniques.
