Aortic valve replacement with preserved aortic valve homografts
A total of 229 patients underwent aortic valve replacement with a preserved aortic valve homograft during a 7½ year period. The operative mortality rate was 4.8 per cent. Statistical analysis of follow-up data indicated that, for patients who survived the first 30 days after surgery, the 4 year survival rate was 94 per cent and the 7 year survival was ...

Aortic valve repair and aortic valve–sparing operations [PDF]
Attempts to correct aortic insufficiency by means of aortic valve repair started soon after the advent of open-chest cardiac surgery. Correction of cusp prolapse was performed by suturing the free margins of 2 cusps from the commissures to the central portion or by excising the noncoronary aortic cusp and sinus, transforming a tricuspid into a bicuspid

Valve-Sparing Operation in Patients with Aortic Root Aneurysm
Background. Aortic root aneurysm is rare but life-threatening disease which affects not only aortic wall, but aortic valve as well. Valve-sparing operation was developed by Tirone David and gave a chance to save native aortic valve in patients with ...

Safety and efficacy of two-port thoracoscopic aortic valve replacement
Background Pure aortic valve disease is common and has been treated with sternotomy aortic valve replacement for decades. Minimally invasive cardiac surgery has been widely used in atrioventricular valve lesions, but totally thoracoscopic aortic valve ...

Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement for Bioprosthetic Aortic Valve Failure [PDF]
Bioprosthetic valves are increasingly used in patients with aortic stenosis. Compared with mechanical valves, bioprosthetic valves are associated with a lower risk of thromboembolic events and do not require long-term anticoagulation.1,2 However, bioprosthetic valves have limited durability; the best current valves can be expected to degenerate within ...
