To the Editor:
I read with great interest the article by De Paulis and colleagues [1] regarding their initial experience with arterial shunt for bilateral antegrade cerebral perfusion. Considering the risk of complications during the placement of the shunt into the arch arteries, this issue requires comment.
Axillary cannulation with a concomitant perfusion of the left common carotid artery, initially with a separate roller pump and later through a Y-shaped branch of the arterial line, has already been described
