A disruptive injury to the ascending aorta during a cardiac operation is a serious and often fatal event. Such an injury is described in which the aorta disrupted at the site of the proximal aortocoronary anastomoses. It was possible to repair the aorta using an intraluminal sutureless graft after other techniques of repair failed.
