• who: Yoshito Inoue from the We performed a single-center retrospective study, for which ethical approval was waived by the Tokyo Dental University Ichikawa General Hospital Ethics CommitteeSurgery was performed through a median sternotomy. The ascending aorta was cannulated using the Seldinger technique in , consecutive patients between , and, . Patients were treated surgically by prosthetic graft replacement of the ascending aorta/hemiarch or total arch under deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (DHCA). Before, decompression of the cannulation site via femoral artery inflow and right atrial circuit was performed before ascending aorta cannulation [1]. However, after the initial experience, we . . .
