In the setting of bleeding into the perigraft space, the classic Bentall operation can be modified by the usage of the Cabrol shunt. This shunt is applied in order to drain the blood into the right atrium and it is expected to close gradually. Anastomotic suture line disruption along with concomitant blood flow into the perigraft space may rarely open the shunt and cause the right heart failure. Due to the anastomotic complications, the classic Bentall operation no longer is widely used in clinical practice, but patients who underwent such procedure some decades ago may be coping with various symptoms nowadays. In this article, the cases of anastomotic disruption as well as pseudoaneurysm formation and the opening of the Cabrol shunt 21 years after such kind of operation are presented. The patient underwent surgical repair and was confronted with the reoccurrence of the coronary pseudoaneurysm three years later.
