Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Arterial tortuosity syndrome (ATS) is an autosomal-recessive genetic connective tissue disorder that affects the aorta and medium-sized arterial vessels. 1 We report a case of successful surgical management of the descending aorta in a ten-day-old patient with ATS who presented with multiorganic failure. The aortic reconstruction with a pulmonary homograft patch was performed using full-flow body perfusion.
