Aortic valve repair for quadricuspid aortic valve associated with aortic regurgitation and ascending aortic aneurysm [PDF]
The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2004 Quadricuspid aortic valve is a rare congenital anomaly. Most cases have been discovered as an incidental finding at aortic valve surgery or at autopsy. With advances in echocardiography, more cases now being discovered preoperatively. Valvular insufficiency is the most frequent hemodynamic abnormality in patients with a quadricuspid aortic valve.

Local versus general anesthesia for transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVR)- systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]
, 2014 The hypothesis of this study was that local anesthesia with monitored anesthesia care (MAC) is not harmful in comparison to general anesthesia (GA) for patients undergoing Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVR).TAVR is a rapidly spreading ...

Repair of the aortic valve in patients with aortic insufficiency and aortic root aneurysm [PDF]
The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 1995 Patients with aneurysms of the ascending aorta or aortic root frequently have aortic insufficiency despite normal aortic leaflets. The aortic valve dysfunction is caused by dilatation of the sinotubular junction, distortion or dilatation of the sinuses of Valsalva, annuloaortic ectasia, or a combination of these problems.

Aortic Dissection and Dissecting Aortic Aneurysms
Annals of Surgery, 1988 Operation was employed in the treatment of 546 patients for complications of aortic dissection during the 32-year period of 1956-1988. Current concepts and operative techniques evolved during this period. Fortunately, about half the patients were treated during the latter 4 years, as modern therapy became standardized.

Aortic morphological variability in patients with bicuspid aortic valve and aortic coarctation [PDF]
European Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 2018 This study aimed to explore aortic morphology and the associations between morphological features and cardiovascular function in a population of patients with bicuspid aortic valve, while further assessing differences between patients with repaired coarctation, patients with unrepaired coarctation and patients without coarctation.This is a single ...
