Résumé
Although the surgical technique for acute type A aortic dissection dramatically improved in recent years, the postoperative mortality and morbidity rates remain high. After the emergency surgery for acute type A aortic dissection, a small tear in the aorta may result in dilation of the false lumen in the future. Some tears originate from the suture line on the anastomosis. This report introduces the novel "plaster technique" that involves using a single interrupted suture with felt and plastering a minimum dose of BioGlue into the suture hole. Similar to patients with acute aortic dissection, we found that the plaster technique using a felt pledget and minimum dose of BioGlue is effective for fragile aortic walls. Moreover, it is a simple, safe, and durable technique to strengthen the suture line. The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s12055-022-01351-0.
