BACKGROUND: In the @entity1 with longer-segment aortic arch @entity509 or interruption with @entity1757 , surgery with homograft vessel or autologous pericardial patch to augment descending aortic arch will not result in adverse reactions caused by end-to-end @entity254 . In this study, we retrospectively analyzed primary experience of surgical correction of complicated @entity6127 with @entity358 . METHODS: From July 2010 to March 2016, the twenty-one cases of @entity6127 were reconstructed with @entity358 . There were 5 @entity1 with interrupted aortic arch and 16 @entity1 with @entity1498 . In @entity1 with interrupted aortic arch, anterior wall of @entity358 was excised to form a conduit whose diameter varied according to the area of @entity1 's body surface. Both ends of the conduit were anastomosed to aortic arch and descending aorta, respectively. In other @entity1 with @entity1498 , aortic arch was augmented with @entity358 patch in oval shape. The defect of @entity358 was repaired with autologous pericardial patch. RESULTS: There was only one @entity1 died of @entity881 postoperatively. The other twenty @entity1 survived without any @entity16 . Differences of blood pressure between upper and lower limbs were not significant in all cases. During follow-up period, the echocardiography for all @entity1 in the third, sixth, twelfth, and twenty-fourth months showed that blood flow in the descending aortic arch was fluent and there was no obvious blood pressure gradient. CONCLUSIONS: Autologous @entity358 can be used to repair complicated @entity6127 completely without any anastomotic @entity2701 or bronchial obstruction postoperatively. This procedure is feasible and possesses predominant early and mid-term effects, and @entity358 can retain growth capacity during follow-up period. Of course, it is necessary to draw a definite conclusion of this technique during long-term follow-up period.
