20 lut 2019 · The authors review axillary artery cannulation indications and technique. They focus on the relevant anatomy, surgical preparation, and cannulation technique. They also show their approach for reoperative axillary artery cannulation and discuss potential complications and pitfalls.
28 mar 2012 · Axillary artery cannulation can be used as the procedure of choice in cases of ascending aortic aneurysm extending in the arch, isolated arch aneurysms, type A aortic dissection, porcelain aorta, re-operations of the thoracic aorta and other miscellaneous indications.
SUMMARY. The axillary artery and vein represent safe and feasible alternatives to subclavian, internal jugular and femoral artery or vein insertion sites. Ultrasound-guided axillary artery and venous catheter insertion is associated with higher success rates and lower complication rates than similar insertion based upon anatomical landmarks.
Axillary artery cannulation is a useful technique that may circumvent several technical problems related to aortic dissection while also offering a convenient way to implement ACP during circulatory arrest. To date, this method has been used most often to surgically repair nondissected or chronically dissected aortic arches.
14 paź 2022 · We show tips and tricks to facilitate the isolation and direct cannulation of the axillary artery, thereby facilitating cerebral perfusion during circulatory arrest and minimizing its involvement in the dissection process.
In this study we present contemporary outcomes of direct AX cannulation for thoracic aortic surgery and identify factors associated with successful direct AX cannulation, discussing the impact of different aortic pathologies, cannula types, and primary vs redo AX cannulation.
Our results suggest that axillary artery cannulation, successful in 95% of patients, may be the optimal technique for reducing perfusion-related morbidity and adverse outcome in operations for acute dissection, atherosclerotic, and degenerative aneurysmal disease.
