Deep hypothermic circulatory arrest for a patient with known cold agglutinins. The Annals of thoracic surgery [Ann Thorac Surg] Journal article

We report a case study of a patient with renal cell carcinoma with tumor extension into the right atrium. This case was complicated by the diagnosis of cold agglutinins and the need for deep hypothermic circulatory arrest. A collaborative approach yielded a positive outcome.
