Abstract
Acute type A aortic dissection may originate from a primary intimal tear located in the ascending aorta and often extends retrogradely into the aortic root. How to prevent bleeding in the aortic root and eliminate false lumen is very important in aortic dissection. We have developed a modified anastomotic technique that involves inverting adventitial and graft into aorta and reinforcing with a felt strip on the external border of the aortic wall. Since 2020, 45 consecutive patients with type A aortic coarctation have undergone this aortic root reconstruction procedure, to date, none have been reopened for bleeding or remnant dissection.
