Surgical treatment of thoracic aneurysms is frequently performed with the aid of partial cardiopulmonary bypass. When profound hypothermia and circulatory arrest are employed, inadequate venous drainage may represent a major problem. We herein describe a technique of inferior vena caval cannulation that allows steady performance when high pump flows are imposed.

Abstract
Surgical treatment of thoracic aneurysms is frequently performed with the aid of partial cardiopulmonary bypass. When profound hypothermia and circulatory arrest are employed, inadequate venous drainage may represent a major problem. We herein describe a technique of inferior vena caval cannulation that allows steady performance when high pump flows are imposed.
