Abstract

Twenty-four consecutive patients underwent epidural cooling as an adjunct to elective thoracoabdominal aortic repair under moderate systemic hypothermia. One patient suffered from postoperative paraplegia (4%), and another died from subarachnoidal hemorrhage (4%). Details of the technique, the associated care, and the pitfalls will be discussed.
