Abstract
Gelatin-resorcin-formaldehyde-glutaraldehyde (GRF) biologic glue is an available adjunct to repair acute ascending aortic dissections. Permanent complete heart block complicated the operative repair of 2 of 6 patients. The pathophysiology of heart block resulting from either the acute dissecting process or the technique of applying GRF glue is discussed.Entities:
