Valve sparing-aortic root replacement with the reimplantation technique in acute type A aortic dissection.
A 56-year-old man presented to the emergency department of our institution complaining of sudden onset chest pain, shortness of breath and palpitations. His past medical history was significant for hypertension and paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Physical examination revealed a blood pressure of 150/80 mmHg, heart rate of 120 bpm, normal heart sounds and lungs auscultation and normal distal art...
متن کاملValve-sparing aortic root replacement.
The aortic root has a unique 3-dimensional configuration and the distinctive function of supporting the aortic valve and blood vessels. The sinuses of Valsalva are crucial to create appropriate eddy currents that are important in initiating and coordinating aortic valve closure and promoting coronary artery blood flow. Most aneurysms in the aortic root are associated with degenerative changes i...
متن کاملValve-sparing aortic root replacement in patients after a previous operation for acute type A aortic dissection.
T he list of long-term complications after surgical intervention for acute type A aortic dissection includes recurrent dissection, aneurysm formation, and aortic valve regurgitation. Ten years after the initial operation for acute type A dissection, the reoperation rate for these kinds of long-term complications is 13% to 30% in the literature.1 The diseased aortic root in these patients is com...
متن کاملHigh failure rate after valve-sparing aortic root replacement using the "remodeling technique" in acute type A aortic dissection.
BACKGROUND Valve-sparing surgery including the replacement of the sinus of valsalvae were initially meant to be promising approaches in the treatment of acute type A aortic dissection. However, the long-term outcome after valve-sparing aortic root replacement in acute type A dissection is currently the subject of intense debate, and the evidence reported in the literature is sparse. Here we rep...
متن کاملValve-sparing aortic root replacement and aortic valve repair in a patient with acromegaly and aortic root dilatation
Aortic regurgitation and dilatation of the aortic root and ascending aorta are severe complications of acromegaly. The current trend for management of an aortic root aneurysm is valve-sparing root replacement as well as restoring the diameter of the aortic sinotubular junction (STJ) and annulus. Our case report supports the recommendation that in patients with acromegaly, severe aortic root inv...
