Serial computerised tomography scans of the thoracic aorta demonstrated an enlarging ascending aortic pseudoaneurysm. Percutaneous closure was considered the safest treatment option. With angiography, the pseudoaneurysm was defined and a 25\u00a0mm Amplatzer PFO closure device was deployed. Repeat Computed Tomography aortography performed 43\u00a0days later confirmed stable device position and resolution of the pseudoaneurysm. The patient was clinically stable at this follow-up point.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The off-label use of the Amplatzer PFO device may provide a viable alternative treatment for ascending aortic pseudoaneurysms in medically complex patients to reduce morbidity and mortality.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/17085381221097814","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,5,4]],"date-time":"2022-05-04T00:43:55Z","timestamp":1651625035000},"page":"858-860","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Avoiding the re-do sternotomy: treatment of an ascending aortic pseudoaneurysm using a percutaneous Amplatzer PFO closure device"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"31","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5265-3714","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Renata","family":"Pajtak","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Vascular Surgery, Alfred Hospital, Melbourne, VIC, Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Thomas","family":"Lovelock","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Vascular Surgery, Alfred Hospital, Melbourne, VIC, Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0146-6588","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Shane","family":"Nanayakkara","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiology, Alfred Hospital, Melbourne, VIC, Australia"},{"name":"Heart Failure Research Group, Baker Heart and Diabetes Institute, Melbourne, VIC, Australia"},{"name":"Faculty of Medicine, Nursing and Health Sciences, Monash University, Melbourne, VIC, Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Antony","family":"Walton","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiology, Alfred Hospital, Melbourne, VIC, Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Thodur","family":"Vasudevan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Vascular Surgery, Alfred Hospital, Melbourne, VIC, Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,5,3]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-17085381221097814","first-page":"818","volume":"59","author":"Razzouk A","year":"1993","journal-title":"The Am Surgeon"},{"key":"bibr2-17085381221097814","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/ccd.21833"},{"key":"bibr3-17085381221097814","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/ccd.24300"},{"key":"bibr4-17085381221097814","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/ccd.20422"},{"key":"bibr5-17085381221097814","first-page":"E19","volume":"20","author":"Cawley P","year":"2008","journal-title":"The J Invasive Cardiology"}],"container-title":["Vascular"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/17085381221097814","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/full-xml\/10.1177\/17085381221097814","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/17085381221097814","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,5,2]],"date-time":"2026-05-02T07:37:02Z","timestamp":1777707422000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1177\/17085381221097814"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2022,5,3]]},"references-count":5,"journal-issue":{"issue":"5","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2023,10]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1177\/17085381221097814"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/17085381221097814","relation":{},"ISSN":["1708-5381","1708-539X"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1708-5381","type":"print"},{"value":"1708-539X","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2022,5,3]]}}}
