Ascending aortic cannulation is presented as a viable technique for treating acute type A aortic dissection based on institutional experience.
Single-center experience with ascending aortic cannulation in acute type A dissection is hypothesis-generating; comparative trials needed before wider adoption.
Different cannulation sites (e.g., femoral artery, axillary artery, left ventricular apex, and ascending aorta) and perfusion techniques (anterograde or retrograde) have been used for treating acute type A aortic dissection. The patient’s pathology and status determine the cannulation site. We present our experience with ascending aortic cannulation for acute type A aortic dissection.
