The patient's further postoperative coursewas free from infection and, 30 months later, he has not developed anycomplications from the graft. We consider thoracic transposition of thegreater omentum to be an excellent procedure for treating mediastinitis ordeep sternal wound infections after cardiac surgery. © Springer-Verlag 1995 European Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery Elsevier Science B.V. 9/4(1995-04), 223-225 1010-7940 9:4<223 1995 9 ejcts https://doi.org/10.1016/S1010-7940(05)80152-6 text/html Onlinezugriff via DOI 1 research-article jats NATIONALLICENCE 856 40 https://doi.org/10.1016/S1010-7940(05)80152-6 text/html Onlinezugriff via DOI NATIONALLICENCE 773 0- European Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery Elsevier Science B.V 9/4(1995-04), 223-225 1010-7940 9:4<223 1995 9 ejcts Metadata rights reserved CC BY-NC-4.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 nationallicence BK010053 XK010053 XK010000 NATIONALLICENCE NATIONALLICENCE NL-oxford
