Repair in traumatic ascending aortic rupture and valve insufficiency.
نویسندگان
چکیده
An 18-year-old patient who had chronic traumatic ascending aortic lesion and valve insufficiency, with severe LV dysfunction, was treated by repair of the aortic wall without prosthesis and of the aortic valve by a gluteraldehyde-treated autologous pericardial patch. The patient had an uneventful recovery and minimal residual aortic regurgitation at one-month echocardiographic follow-up. Conservative surgery of these lesions is feasible, with good results, in some cases.

Conventional surgical repair carries a certain risk of mortality and morbidity. Since the introduction of aortic stent-graft, endovascular repair has gradually become a new alternative surgical approach for treating traumatic aortic rupture. We hereby present the...
متن کاملCurrent Indications for Surgical Repair in Patients with Bicuspid Aortic Valve and Ascending Aortic Ectasia
Preventive surgical repair of the moderately dilated ascending aorta/aortic root in patients with bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is controversial. Most international reference centers are currently proposing a proactive approach for BAV patients with a maximum ascending aortic/root diameter of 45 mm since the risk of dissection/rupture raises significantly with an aneurysm diameter >50 mm. Current...
متن کاملAortic valve regurgitation caused by blunt chest injury.
Aortic valve regurgitation is an uncommon consequence of closed chest injury. It is caused by damage to the valve apparatus (ruptured cusp) or when subadventitial rupture of the ascending aorta causes prolapse of a subjacent valve cusp. Aortic valve regurgitation was detected in 4 patients (2 men and 2 women, 30 to 65 years old) who had sustained multiple injuries in road accidents 1 week to 30...
