چکیده

OBJECTIVES: The effect of performing aortic valve repair in combination with valve-sparing operation on the length of time for which patients are free from reoperation is unclear. The objective of this study was to determine if the performance of aortic valve repair during valve-sparing operation modified the freedom from reoperation time. METHODS: From January 2003 to July 2014, 78 patients with a mean age of 49±15 years underwent valve-sparing operation. Sixty-eight percent of these patients were male. Twenty-two (28%) aortic valve repair procedures were performed in this patient population. In the aortic valve repair + valve-sparing operation group, 77.3% of patients had moderate/severe aortic insufficiency, while in the valve-sparing operation group, 58.6% of patients had moderate/severe aortic insufficiency (ns = not significant). Additionally, 13.6% of patients in the aortic valve repair + valve-sparing operation group had functional class III/IV, while 14.2% of patients in the valve-sparing operation group had functional class III/IV (ns). RESULTS: The in-hospital and late mortality rates, for the aortic valve repair + valve-sparing operation and valve-sparing operation groups were similar, as they were 4.5% and 3.6%; and 0% and 1.8%, respectively. In the aortic valve repair + valve-sparing operation group, 0% of patients presented moderate/severe aortic insufficiency during late follow-up, while in the valve-sparing operation group, 14.2% of patients presented with moderate/severe aortic insufficiency during this period (ns). In the aortic valve repair + valve-sparing operation group, 5.3% of patients presented with functional class III/IV, while in the valve-sparing operation group, 4.2% of patients presented with functional class III/IV (ns). In the aortic valve repair + valve-sparing operation group, 0% of patients required reoperation, while in the valve-sparing operation group, 3.6% of patients required reoperation over a mean follow-up period of 1621±1156 days (75 patients). CONCLUSION: Valve-sparing operation is a safe and long-lasting procedure and performance of aortic valve repair when necessary does not increase risk of reoperation on the aortic valve.

Combined valve-sparing root replacement and total arch replacement with frozen elephant trunk.

We report a case of simultaneous repair of an extensive thoracic aortic aneurysm from the aortic root to the distal aortic arch. A 54-year-old male had annuloaortic ectasia and a transverse aortic and distal arch aneurysm. Aneurysms of the descending aorta and the abdominal aorta were also demonstrated. The patient underwent aortic valve-sparing root reconstruction, replacement of the aortic ar...

Bicuspid Aortic Valve: An Unusual Cause of Aneurysm of Left Coronary Sinus of Valsalva

Bicuspid aortic valve is traditionally considered an innocuous congenital anomaly. Due to a better and widespread availability of non-invasive imaging techniques, it has come to the fore that 30% of these cases develop complications, viz., valve abnormality (aortic regurgitation and stenosis), and aneurysm of aortic root and ascending aorta. Sinus of Valsalva aneurysm is an uncommon complicatio...

Valve sparing root replacement: the remodeling technique with external ring annuloplasty.

A standardized approach to aortic valve repair is described associating a physiological remodeling of the root, with resuspension of cusp effective height and a subvalvular aortic annuloplasty using an external expansible ring. This device achieves a complete calibrated annuloplasty, in order to increase cups coaptation height and protect the repair. This is a video-atlas describing the surgica...

OBJECTIVES Surgery for aortic root aneurysm without valve stenosis is increasingly being transformed from the Bentall procedure to valve-sparing aortic root remodelling or reimplantation. In this report, a new repair option is explored, with full functional 'restoration' of the aortic root complex using a geometric annuloplasty ring, leaflet repair, and sinus/ascending aortic replacement with a...

Successful valve-sparing in aortic root reconstruction under endoscopic guidance.

OBJECTIVE Aortic insufficiency (AI) associated with ascending aneurysm can be corrected by valve-sparing aortic root reconstruction ('David' reimplantation, 'Yacoub' remodeling). Intraoperative endoscopic evaluation in the aortic root may help to clarify the procedure and to access competence of the preserved valve. METHODS Following cross-clamping of the ascending aorta, an endoscopy was ins...
