Organ protection during thoracoabdominal aortic surgery: rationale for a multimodality approach.

Semin Cardiothorac Vasc Anesth 9(2):143-9 (2005) PMID 15920639

Surgical repair of thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms (TAAAs) remains a technically challenging operation that requires a systematic approach to prevent ischemic complications and achieve excellent clinical outcomes. Techniques for organ protection have evolved substantially over the past 20 years. This review describes our current multimodality approach to organ protection during TAAA repair.
