Application of the aortic balloon occlusion technique in Sun's procedure: A single‐center study

During total aortic arch replacement and stented elephant trunk surgery for AAAD, we used the aortic BO technique, which avoids deeper hypothermia and effectively shortens circulatory arrest times. This approach is helpful for reducing the incidence of postoperative complications and shortening the intensive care unit time. This method also reduces the patient's medical burden and facilitates faster recovery.
