Abstract

The usual closure of the aortic stump results in a cul-de-sac which favors secondary rupture. A new procedure utilizing an anterior-posterior suture line in two layers is described which creates a median strut. It allows a secure suture line in a short aortic stump, and may enhance the splitting of blood flow between the renal arteries.
