Abstract: | Background Techniques of reduction aortoplasty are widely published in the literature with conflicting results. External support seems
to be an important factor in preventing recurrence but, in some cases, this technique caused erosion of the aorta because
of the wrinkles the prosthesis creates in the rear side of the aorta. |
