1 Successful salvage of inferior vena cava rupture during reoperative repair for ascending aortic aneurysm  Chien-Chang Chen, MD, Shih-Rong Hsieh, MD  The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  Volume 77, Issue 2, Pages (February 2004) DOI: /S (03)01419-X

2 Fig 1 Computed tomographic aortography revealed an aneurysm of the ascending aorta with a maximal diameter of 6.2 cm. The anterior wall of the aneurysm was very thin and adhered to the sternum. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (03)01419-X)

3 Fig 2 The venous conduit was Y-connected to the arterial conduit. During antegrade cardiopulmonary bypass, point A was clamped. The blood flow went in the direction marked by the black arrows. During total-body retrograde perfusion, point A was released while points B and C were clamped. The oxygenated blood left the oxygenator and followed the direction marked by the white arrows.
