1 Aorto-Left Ventricular Tunnel: An Alternative Surgical Approach
Fotios A. Mitropoulos, MD, PhD, Hillel Laks, MD, Meletios A. Kanakis, MD, Daniel Levi, MD  The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  Volume 82, Issue 3, Pages (September 2006) DOI: /j.athoracsur Copyright © 2006 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions

2 Fig 1 Aorto-left ventricular tunnel (ALVT) as depicted from the lateral view on the cardiac angiogram. (A = ALVT; B = ascending aorta; C = right coronary artery.) The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /j.athoracsur ) Copyright © 2006 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions

3 Fig 2 Picture as seen from the surgeon’s view after opening the pericardium. (A = pulmonary artery; B = aorto-left ventricular tunnel; C = aorta; D = right atrium; E = right ventricle.)

4 Fig 3 (A) Schematic representation of the surgical anatomy. (Aa = ascending aorta; LAA = left atrial appendage; PA = pulmonary artery; RA = right atrium; SVC = superior vena cava.) (B) After the tunnel has been opened, the aortic and the ventricular orifices are seen through the tunnel. (A = aortic orifice; B = ventricular orifice; C = tunnel opened; D = aortic cannula; E = venous cannula.)
