Background Aortic valve-sparing operations theoretically have fewer stroke and bleeding
complications but may increase late reoperation risk versus composite valve grafts. Methods …

In aortic root aneurysms, the challenge of a valve-sparing aortic root replacement (VSRR)
procedure is to ensure durable aortic valve function without reintervention. Although the …

Objective Remodeling or reimplantation are established operative techniques of aortic valve–
sparing root replacement. Long-term follow-up is necessary comparing tricuspid and …

Background Although the unique risks of implanting a prosthetic valve after aortic valve (AV)
surgery in young patients are well established, studies of aortic root replacement (ARR) are …

Background This large cohort, single-center study compared the 10-year survival and
freedom from aortic valve reintervention between valve-sparing root replacement (VSRR) …

David V valve-sparing root replacement (VSRR) and bio-Bentall (BB) are increasingly
performed for aortic root aneurysms associated with a bicuspid aortic valve (BAV). However …

Background Valve-sparing aortic procedures, including the David and Yacoub procedures,
have emerged as the dominant approaches in aortic aneurysm surgery, preserving the …

Objective Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) represents 2 cusps oriented along a spectrum of equal
(180°/180°) or unequal (150°/210°) leaflet surface area distribution along the aortic annular …

Objective Surgery for ascending aneurysms in bicuspid aortic valve syndrome primarily
includes Bentall root replacement, aortic valve replacement with supracoronary ascending …

Background This study evaluated midterm outcomes of a 3-pronged algorithm for bicuspid
aortic valve (BAV) repair. Valve-sparing root reimplantation (VSRR) was performed for …
