- Abstract
Patients with severely calcified aorta are at high risk of embolic stroke during surgery and it is not feasible to clamp the aorta, necessitating alternative surgical strategies. We present a clampless anastomosis technique using the aortic cannula mounted by a prosthetic graft for a severely calcified aorta in a patient with subclavian–vertebral artery steal syndrome.
