ABSTRACT
Using full-flow cardiopulmonary bypass, mild hypothermia and cardioplegic arrest, the aortic orifice of the aorto-left ventricular tunnel is closed with an autologous pericardial patch. After a longitudinal incision into the tunnel, a second patch of polytetrafluoroethylene is placed as far distally into the tunnel as possible to exclude most of its lumen from perfusion.
