چکیده

Catheter-based valve implantation techniques are becoming a viable option in various clinical situations to replace difficult redo open heart surgical procedures. This is a report of a first, to our knowledge, successful valve-in-valve (VinV) transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) into a homograft through the transaortic (TAo) access route using an Edwards SAPIEN valve prosthesis (Edwards Lifesciences, LLC, Irvine, CA) in a patient with poor left ventricular function and generalized severe atherosclerosis.

OBJECTIVE Aortic homografts offer many advantages over prosthetic valves. However, homograft dysfunction due to degeneration or infection may lead to reoperation. Aortic valve replacement in patients who have undergone previous aortic root replacement with an aortic homograft remains a technical challenge. To assess reoperation events a retrospective review was conducted. MATERIALS AND METHOD...

Outcome after homograft redo operation in aortic position.

OBJECTIVE Since 1992, homografts have been implanted in our institution. After initial sub-coronary implantation of the homograft, our preferred technique for aortic-valve replacement with homografts became root replacement, which poses a surgical challenge whenever redo procedures are necessary. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the outcome after homograft redo surgery, based on pro...

The Ross Operation: Treatment of Choice for Aortic Valve Disease in Children and Young Adults

1 also called the pulmonary autograft procedure, involves replacement of the diseased aortic valve with the patient’s own pulmonary valve (autograft) and implantation of a biological valve (homograft) in the pulmonary position. It was first described and pioneered by Mr. Donald Ross in 1967 in London. The procedure was popularised in the 1980s when homografts became widely available on both sid...
