Objective: We report a rare complication—stenosis of the proximal anastomotic site caused
by an inside felt strip—in surgery for acute type A aortic dissection. Methods: Eight weeks …

A 39-year-old man underwent emergency surgery for type A acute aortic dissection
complicated by paraplegia. However, hemolytic anemia increased significantly due to …

Backgrounds Hemolysis related to a kinked prosthetic graft or inner felt strip is a very rare
complication after aortic surgery. We describe herein a case of hemolytic anemia that …

We report three cases of hemolytic anemia caused by anastomotic stenosis after surgical

Objective: We present two cases of type A aortic dissection repaired with the help of
biological glue, that were followed by acute limb ischemia due to embolism of glue. Methods …
