ABSTRACT
A 52-year-old woman with Marfan syndrome developed Stanford type B aortic dissection and was treated with thoracic endovascular aortic repair. However, 29 months later, she presented with retrograde Stanford type A aortic dissection. We successfully performed aortic arch replacement with the frozen elephant trunk technique and valve-sparing aortic root replacement. The advantages of the frozen elephant trunk technique are that the distal anastomosis can be created without stent-graft resection and the cardiac arrest time is shortened. Therefore, the frozen elephant trunk technique was considered valuable and safe in this potentially lethal situation.
