Simplified aortic cannulation

R Garcia-Rinaldi et al. Ann Thorac Surg. 1983 Aug.

Abstract

Cannulation of the ascending aorta for cardiopulmonary bypass can be complicated by excessive bleeding or improper (too low) placement. A simple method of cannulation that avoids these problems is presented. This technique has been utilized in more than 1,000 patients without untoward complications.
