Abstract
The “too-long,” or redundant, circumflex graft is notorious for its tendency to form a kink. The acute angle (the kink) typically occurs over the front of the pulmonary trunk. Described herein are (1) the left appendage flip maneuver, a simple solution to correct graft kink, and (2) analysis and explanation of vein graft kink.
