Ballard J, Duensing R
Semin Vasc Surg . 2001 Jan; 13(4):331-9. PMID: 11156062
Most complications related to thoracoabdominal aortic reconstruction stem from ischemia-induced injury to the viscera, kidneys, and spinal cord. In addition to adjunctive methods designed to minimize metabolic demands of the...
