چکیده

Sinotubular junction reconstruction in reimplantation type of valve-sparing aortic procedure can present some problem when a Valsalva graft is used. Since in the Valsalva graft the sinotubular junction height is predetermined, correct matching with native commissures height can be difficult. We propose a method by which it is possible to create a new sinotubular junction in Valsalva graft without altering its original configuration.

Sorin Solo stentless valve: extended adaptability for sinotubular junction mismatch.

Stentless valve continence is affected by the implantation technique, annular symmetry and dilatation of the sinotubular junction. We tested in vitro how the Sorin Solo stentless pericardial valve adapts to a slightly dilated sinotubular junction. Stentless Sorin Solo aortic valves (25 mm) were sutured into a 32-mm Valsalva graft suspending the commissures into the expandable region of the graf...

Minimally invasive David reimplantation of bicuspid aortic valve.

The technical details of aortic valve reimplantation as a treatment for aortic root aneurism with or without aortic valve insufficiency has been previously described in several studies (1,2). Variations in the aortic valve reimplantation operation have been developed, with the common goal of achieving not only perfect intraoperative results, but also long-term stability. The Valsalva graft (Vas...

Aortic root reconstruction in two patients with chronic aortic dissection by aortic valve-sparing procedures using a new aortic root conduit with the sinuses of valsalva (De Paulis Valsalva graft).

The durability of the aortic valve after aortic root reconstruction by an aortic valve-sparing procedure is of particular concern because of the absence of the sinuses of Valsalva in the David type-I reimplantation method. Various improvements have been made to the David-I method. In particular, a new aortic root conduit with the sinuses of Valsalva was developed recently and is expected to imp...
