Biomechanical properties of the aortic root are distinct from those of the ascending aorta in both normal and aneurysmal statesCentral MessagePerspective [PDF]

JTCVS Open, 2023
Background: Although aneurysms of the ascending aorta and the aortic root are treated similarly in clinical guidelines, how biomechanical properties differ between these 2 segments of aorta is poorly defined.

Comparative study of aortic root replacement versus aortic root enlargement in small aortic root

The Cardiothoracic Surgeon
Background For patients with aortic stenosis (AS) and small annulus, aortic root replacement (RR) and aortic root enlargement (RE) are proven methods to prevent prosthesis-patient mismatch (PPM).

Ascending aortic replacement versus aortic root replacement in patients with type A aortic dissection involving the aortic root [PDF]

Therapeutic Advances in Cardiovascular Disease
Background: Extensive surgical resection of the thoracic aorta in patients with type A aortic dissection (TAAD) is thought to reduce the risk of late aortic wall degeneration and the need for repeat aortic operations.

Mid- and long-term evaluation of an alternative to the Liu' modified Bentall procedure for aortic root aneurysm [PDF]

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine
BackgroundDue to complications such as aortic root bleeding and high coronary tension with the conventional Bentall technique to treat aortic root aneurysms, new methods have been developed to enhance patient outcomes.

Reinforced aortic root reconstruction for acute type A aortic dissection involving the aortic root

Brazilian Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery, 2013
OBJECTIVE: There are debates regarding the optimal approach for AAAD involving the aortic root. We described a modified reinforced aortic root reconstruction approach for treating AAAD involving the aortic root. METHODS: A total of 161 patients with AAAD

Growth of the aortic root in children and young adults with Marfan syndrome

Open Heart, 2022
Objectives The primary aim was to gain insight into the growth of the aortic root in children and young adults with Marfan syndrome (MFS). Furthermore, we aimed to identify a clinical profile of patients with MFS who require an aortic root replacement at

Changes in aortic root dimensions after ascending aortic repair with concomitant aortic valve replacement

Российский кардиологический журнал, 2023
The issue of ascending aortic repair with concomitant aortic valve replacement in pa-tients with ascending aortic aneurysm (AscAA) and aortic valve stenosis is still debatable.Aim.

Aortic root abscess [PDF]

Heart, 1999
Infective endocarditis affecting the aortic valve may be complicated by an abscess cavity in the aortic root,1-3 and this is more frequent and serious in prosthetic than native valve infections.4 5 Successful management of this condition, which has high morbidity and mortality, invariably requires surgical repair, and depends on early diagnosis, clear ...
