چکیده

The Cabrol technique is reserved where the conventional 'button' or Bentall techniques fail to maintain a tension-free anastomosis between the coronary arteries and aortic conduit. However, the side-to-side anastomosis of the interposition graft that connects the coronary ostia with the aorta in the Cabrol, may lead to kinking or tension, and subsequent occlusion. We present a case of successful Cabrol modification in a patient with bicuspid aortopathy where the graft to the right coronary artery was anastomosed directly onto the valved conduit and the graft to the left main stem onto the previous right aortocoronary graft in a T-fashion.

Evolution of Precision Medicine and Surgical Strategies for Bicuspid Aortic Valve-Associated Aortopathy

Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is a common congenital cardiac malformation affecting 1-2% of people. BAV results from fusion of two adjacent aortic valve cusps, and is associated with dilatation of the aorta, known as bicuspid valve associated aortopathy. Bicuspid valve aortopathy is progressive and associated with catastrophic clinical events, such as aortic dissection and rupture. Therefore, fre...

Bicuspid aortic valve aortopathy: genetics, pathophysiology and medical therapy.

The association between ascending aortic aneurysm (AA) and bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) has been well established. Different genetic, haemodynamic and cardiovascular risk factors have been implicated in the development and progression of AA. However, to date, definite conclusions cannot be drawn regarding the exact molecular, cellular and haemodynamic mechanisms causing BAV-associated aortopathy...

Inherited aortopathy assessment in bicuspid aortic valve disease relative

Background Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is known to be heritable and often shows a concomitant aortopathy which was thought also to be present in some family members. While one recent study reported normal ascending aortic diameters in family members of the general BAV population, little is known about aortic function in such family members. We used advanced aortic cardiovascular magnetic resona...

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...
