[Coronary artery bypass grafting in cases with the XXXX ascending aorta].

@entity1 @entity2224 @entity1167 @entity731 @entity2332 @entity385
Among 172 cases of coronary artery bypass grafting, 9 cases (5%) revealed severely @entity731 ascending aorta. In 3 of the 9 cases, total aortic cross-clamping in the distal anastomoses of saphenous vein graft (SVG) and partial aortic clamp in the proximal anastomoses of SVG were performed. In 1 case with this technique, @entity385 was occurred. In 4 cases, total aortic cross-clamping in the distal and proximal anastomoses of SVG was performed. In 2 of these cases with this technique, @entity385 were occurred. Hypothermic @entity1167 was performed in 2 of the rest. In one case that was predicted to have @entity731 of ascending aorta prior to operation, the left internal thoracic artery was anastomosed to the left anterior descending, and SVG to the right coronary artery with @entity2332 and @entity2224 . And during the proximal anastomoses of SVG, hypothermic @entity1167 without aortic clamping was initiated. In another case, @entity731 of ascending aorta was noted after aortic cross-clamping. Then the aorta was declamped, hypothermic @entity1167 was established, the aorta was opened, the diseased segment was resected, and proximal anastomoses of SVG was performed to Dacron patch which was implanted for aortic wall. There were no @entity385 in last two @entity1 .
