The thromboexclusion method was successfully applied to a 43-year-old male with aortitis syndrome. Preoperative aortogram showed a fusiform aneurysm of the descending aorta just below the left subclavian artery and atypical coarctation of the descending aorta distal to this aneurysm. Pressure gradient across the stenosis was about 70 mmHg. The technique of flow reversal and thromboexclusion was performed in this patient because of severe calcification in the aortic arch and the entire descending aorta. A long extra-anatomical bypass between the ascending aorta and the infrarenal abdominal aorta was made, and a permanent aortic clamp was placed across the aorta at the left subclavian artery. Hypertension in the arm disappeared immediately after the operation, and postoperative catheterization revealed no pressure gradient between the ascending and the abdominal aorta. Computed tomogram performed 18 days after the operation and aortogram done 44 days postoperatively disclosed thrombi formation in the aneurysm.
