False aneurysm from the aortic vent site is an uncommon complication following open heart surgery. An ascending aorta false aneurysm developed in a patient four months after mitral and aortic valve replacement. Extensive adhesions precluded aortic dissection and cross-clamping. Femoro-femoral cannulation, low flow, low pressure, and low temperature cardiopulmonary by-pass was used. The aneurysm was resected and then repaired with a Dacron patch. A Foley catheter was placed in the ascending aorta through the defect to obtain a bloodless field. This surgical approach can be useful in managing this difficult situation.
