Redo mitral surgery after coronary artery bypass grafts under hyperkalemic hypothermia using thoracotomy and axillary artery cannulation in a patient with functioning bilateral internal thoracic arteries and atheromatous aorta

Abstract Background Redo mitral valve surgery using resternotomy after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is challenging as previous CABG with patent internal thoracic artery (ITA) poses a risk of injury due to dense adhesion. It is paramount to have alternative method to minimize this risk. Cas...
