Frozen Elephants Trunk

Recommended Posts

midpack

If anyone is interested in learning about a really complicated surgery involving replaccing an Aortic arch completely with a Dacron unit. Look that one up its called Frozen ElephantsTrunk repair, its pretty wild. I got this done as a re-do from an aortic root dilation repair from about 3 years ago. Spent a week in Maine  Med in Portland. The Malone tower has really great staff and Dr Rosu was great. Now it's time for some rehab, again...

At least you went to the right Hospital. Spent a lot of time in there myself. If not there Boston is the best. Good Luck

Glad you were able to have your needs met by great doctors at the best facility. I pray that your rehab will go well and you can return to normal activity soon.

Any hospitalization that you can walk away from is a good one.       :woohoo:      Between January 25 and February 16 I qualified for frequent flyer status with our county's ambulance service and was admitted to the hospital three separate times but am doing great now.
