An alternative and safer method for aortic decannulation

Abstract

The removal of an aortic cannula at the termination of cardiopulmonary bypass is occasionally associated with complications like bleeding, atheroembolism and dissection. An alternative method to decannulate using a side-biting non-crushing clamp is suggested to mitigate against these complications.
