A model was developed in pigs for simultaneous evaluation of aortic and pulmonary allograft performance in a composite graft. The composite graft consisted of vascular prosthesis and aortic and pulmonary allografts. Following antibiotic preservation, it was anastomosed to the recipient's thoracic descending aorta by an extrapleural approach without using cardiopulmonary bypass. Aortic blood flow was completely diverted into the composite graft. All 12 recipient pigs recovered well, 4 of which were assigned for the initial study to design the suitable experimental schedule. Calcification readily occurred in the aortic allografts and aneurysmal dilatation without calcification developed in the pulmonary allografts. These morphological findings were consistent with those of previous reports. This model has several benefits. First, aortic and pulmonary allograft conduits can be implanted and evaluated simultaneously under the same conditions by making a composite graft. Second, the magnitude of the operation is minimum, and postoperative circulatory and respiratory management is uncomplicated. Third, wound infection rarely occurs, because the skin incision is made on the back. These preliminary studies suggest that this model will allow future study concerning aortic and pulmonary allograft conduits under different conditions.
