Abstract:: We report the case of a patient who underwent Cabrol composite graft procedure for ascending aorta aneurysm and aortic regurgitation. Sixteen years later he developed progressive dyspnea and a left-to-right shunt caused by distal detachment of the valve conduit with persistence of the perigraft space-right atrial fistula visualized with echocardiography. Our case shows that late manifestations of surgical complications of the Cabrol procedure may occur and transesophageal echocardiography may...
