One minute systemic circulatory arrest (OSCA) during the surgery. a The intraoperative stent was placed into the distal aortic arch. b The aortic arch was immediately cross-clamped after de-airing, which greatly shortened the duration of the hypothermic circulatory arrest to about 1 min. c The 8 mm graft was end-to-side anastomosed to the 12 mm graft (innominate artery). The free-end of the 12 mm graft was end-to-side anastomosed to the ascending graft in ideal site
