The technical essentials of the procedure include femoral artery cannulation, selective antegrade cerebral perfusion for brain protection, total arch replacement with a 4-branched vascular graft, implantation of the special open stented graft into the descending aorta, moderate hypothermic balloon occluding descending aorta at 25. This technique allows arch reconstruction to be debranched first and upper part of the body is perfused via the 4-branched vascular graft, ensuring antegrade true lumen cerebral perfusion rapidly secured, the descending aorta is arrested by balloon occluding and earl...
