Valve-sparing aortic root replacement† [PDF]

European Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 2014
To evaluate our results of valve-sparing aortic root replacement and associated (multiple) valve repair.From September 2003 to September 2013, 97 patients had valve-sparing aortic root replacement procedures. Patient records and preoperative, postoperative and recent echocardiograms were reviewed. Median age was 40.3 (range: 13.4-68.6) years and 67 (69.
