Right Coronary Artery Button Pseudoaneurysm After the Modified Bentall Procedure

Anastomoses of the coronary buttons are the Achilles’ heel of the modified Bentall procedure (MBP) for the repair of the aortic root and ascending aorta. We present a rare case of post-MBP right coronary artery button pseudoaneurysm in a 30-year-old man. The contained leak, attributed to a pseudokno...

Sumario:Anastomoses of the coronary buttons are the Achilles’ heel of the modified Bentall procedure (MBP) for the repair of the aortic root and ascending aorta. We present a rare case of post-MBP right coronary artery button pseudoaneurysm in a 30-year-old man. The contained leak, attributed to a pseudoknot in the polypropylene suture, was visualized via computed tomography angiography and transesophageal echocardiogram and repaired under deep hypothermic circulatory arrest.
