ABSTRACT
In situ revascularization of the subclavian artery can be challenging in the context of emergency situations, a large aortic aneurysm with a posteriorly displaced left subclavian artery, a complex redo procedure or in the presence of an aberrant subclavian artery. A transthoracic aorto-axillary extra-anatomical bypass is a low risk alternative to in situ revascularization or carotid to subclavian bypass. We herein describe the surgical steps during a single-stage surgery complex aortic arch surgery. We report a 95.3% graft patency for 77 consecutive transthoracic aorto-axillary extra-anatomical bypass performed to 66 patients at the mean follow-up of 2.9 ± 2.4 years. We encountered 3 early (before 180 days postop) graft failures and no late graft failure. Graft failure had no clinical significance.
