pubmed:abstractText |
Mediastinitis with infection of an ascending aortic graft is hard to heal and is a highly fatal complication. We had a patient in whom mediastinitis with infection of such a graft as well as an ascending aorta-femoral artery bypass graft developed after the initial operation for type A aortic dissection accompanied by peripheral malperfusion. We treated it successfully by inserting a stent into the true lumen of the thoracoabdominal aorta and using a cryopreserved homograft to replace the infected ascending aortic fabric graft.
