Abstract
Rupture of pseudoaneurysm of the aorta with chronic active mediastinitis after cardiac surgery is a catastrophic complication. We report a case of one-stage operation of urgent repair for ruptured pseudoaneurysm under deep hypothermic circulatory arrest, debridement of mediastinum, and omental transfer, with an uneventful postoperative course.Entities:
