ABSTRACT
We report a successful case of graft replacement for ascending and aortic arch aneurysm which developed 5 years after CABG. A 75-year-old woman, who underwent emergency CABG (LITA-LAD, SVG-RCA) 5 years previously, was admitted to our hospital due to an abnormal shadow on chest roentogenogram. Aortogram and coronary angiogram revealed ascending and aortic arch aneurysm and patent LITA and SVG. Graft replacement of the ascending and total aortic arch was carried out using four branched grafts (Gelweave 26/10/8/8<sup>*</sup>8). Cardiopulmonary bypass was established with right axillary arterial perfusion and bicaval cannulation. Cardiac arrest was obtained with cold blood cardioplegia using both retrograde and antegrade techniques. Selective cerebral perfusion was used for brain protection. The patient was discharged without any complication on the 27th postoperative day.
