Abstract

Introduction: Aortic arch procedures require reliable cerebral protection to reduce the incidence of neurological complications, some of which may be due to the introduction of air into the cerebral circulation. For selective antegrade cerebral perfusion, this study described a simple yet novel direct innominate artery cannulation technique designed to eliminate the incidence of air embolism.
