ABSTRACT
The incidence of severe aortic atheromatous disease (porcelain
aorta) varies from a 14 to a 22%. Surgical handling
in this scenario carries a high morbidity and mortality.
A large part of these patients presents with systemic arteriopathy,
which precludes aortic cannulation of femoral
arteries. We describe the use of innominate artery
for cannulation, and endoluminal occlusion of ascending
aorta for cardiopulmonary bypass in two cases, using a
Foley catheter.
