Central Partial Bypass Management Technique for Distal Arch Surgery

Circulatory arrest and left heart bypass are the most common approaches to manage perfusion during distal arch surgery. We report a novel perfusion technique utilized in the treatment of aneurysmal Komerrell's diverticulum (KD) and aberrant subclavian artery (ASA) that allows for a reliable conduct of perfusion. From 2016 to 2020, 12 adult patients with aneurysmal KD and ASA underwent repair of distal arch through lateral thoracotomy ipsilateral to the arch side using central partial bypass.
