Fig 3 Sagittal section view of a preoperative cineangiogram (A) and magnetic resonance imaging study (B) in patient 3, revealing a pseudoaneurysm (arrows) that originates from the proximal anastomosis site and is connected with the distal anastomosis site, forming a tunnel behind the prosthetic graft (arrowheads).

Fig 4 Intraoperative photography of patient 3. The ascending aorta and prosthetic graft were longitudinally opened. At both the anastomotic sites, the prosthetic graft has partially detached from the aorta. A tunnel is formed with the pseudoaneurysm behind the prosthetic graft. A pair of thoracic forceps is passed through the pseudoaneurysm tunnel. The outer wall of the pseudoaneurysm consists of surrounding connective tissues, the left atrium, and the pulmonary artery.

Fig 5 Photomicrographs of a longitudinal section of the proximal anastomosis in patient 3 showing disruption and necrosis of the intima and media (arrowheads). Hyaline degeneration and fibrinoid degeneration, as well as local inflammation with macrophage aggregates engulfing the waste tissues (arrows), are observed at the anastomotic site. (A) Hematoxylin and eosin staining. (B), (C) Masson trichrome staining. Original magnification: ×40 (A, B), ×400 (C). (BP = bovine pericardium strip.)
