Fig. 3 Technique of distal perfusion during extent II thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm repair. Atriodistal bypass is used during initial aortic clamping (A) and performance of proximal anastomosis. Selective visceral and renal perfusion with balloon cannulas is used during reattachment of critical intercostal arteries (B). During reattachment of visceral vessels (C), selective visceral and renal perfusion continues while intercostal arteries, now proximal to distal clamp, receive antegrade perfusion.
