Repair of ascending aorta pseudoaneurysm without circulatory arrest in redo patient

<p>Abstract</p> <p>A pseudoaneurysm of the ascending aorta is an unusual and potentially fatal complication after aortic surgical operations. TEE and CT scan are the investigations of choice. Surgical treatment is mandatory. We describe the successful management of a pseudoaneurysm...
