- Redo cardiac surgery is commonly performed in the current era. We describe a clinical scenario in a patient with a patent left internal thoracic artery to left anterior descending artery graft, requiring replacement of ascending aortic aneurysm with previous coronary artery bypass operation complicated by mediastinits. A pre-operative 64 slice computed tomographic scan helped us plan and perform replacement of ascending aorta safely.
