Outcomes after the Ross procedure with pulmonary autograft reinforcement by reimplantationCentral MessagePerspective

JTCVS Techniques, 2023
Background: Pulmonary autograft reinforcement to prevent dilatation and subsequent neo-aortic valve regurgitation has been reported; however, data on long-term function of the neo-aortic valve after this modified Ross procedure are lacking. Our objective

Effect of Valve Height on the Opening and Closing Performance of the Aortic Valve Under Aortic Root Dilatation

Frontiers in Physiology, 2021
Patients with aortic valve disease can suffer from valve insufficiency after valve repair surgery due to aortic root dilatation. The paper investigates the effect of valve height (Hv) on the aortic valve opening and closing in order to select the ...

Associations of Lifelong Exercise Characteristics With Valvular Function and Aortic Diameters in Patients With a Bicuspid Aortic Valve

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease
Background The potential impact of exercise on valvular function and aortic diameters in patients with a bicuspid aortic valve remains unclear. Therefore, we assessed the association between lifelong exercise characteristics, valvular dysfunction, and ...
