Abstract
Brain injury represents a primary concern during aortic arch surgery. Valid surgical techniques and reliable methods of brain protection are required to obtain a favorable outcome after such a complex surgery. Our aim was to review available methods of brain protection including deep hypothermia and circulatory arrest, retrograde cerebral perfusion and antegrade cerebral perfusion.Entities:
