Aortic Valve Repair for Rheumatic Aortic Valve Disease
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2005The aim of this study is to assess the long-term results of aortic valve repair in patients with rheumatic aortic valve disease.From April 1991 through December 2003, 61 patients with rheumatic aortic valve disease underwent aortic valve repair. Mean age was 23.7 +/- 9.3 years (range, 6 to 53 years).

An aortic valve typically consists of three valve leaflets, named after their orientation relative to the left and right coronary artery. In 0.5–2 % of the general population, the aortic valve comprises only two leaflets, which is termed a bicuspid aortic valve (BAV).

Abstract This paper describes fifteen patients with aortic valve perforation, in fourteen of whom this complication developed during the course of bacterial endocarditis. Aortic cusp perforation should be suspected whenever moderately severe or severe aortic insufficiency appears during bacterial endocarditis. The murmur of aortic insufficiency caused

Are bicuspid aortic valves a limitation for aortic valve repair?
European Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 2011To compare the mid-term results after aortic valve (AV) repair in bicuspid AVs with those in tricuspid AVs.Between 2000 and 2010, 100 patients (mean age 47.2 years) underwent AV repair procedures for insufficient bicuspid AV (n=43) and tricuspid AV (n=57).

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2013 A lateral projection chest roentgenogram (Fig 1) demonstrates two bioprosthetic aortic valves and shows how a modern problem was solved using an historical, and otherwise outdated, surgical procedure. A 65-year-old man presented in 2006 with severe symptoms of prosthetic aortic valve insufficiency after undergoing previous aortic valve replacement ...

Aortic Valve Repair for Congenital Abnormalities of the Aortic Valve
Heart, Lung and Circulation, 2006Due to shortcomings of any valve replacement, repairing and retaining the native valve may be beneficial for congenital aortic valve disease.Retrospective review of data and follow-up of aortic valve repair from a single institution.From 1993 to 2001, 56 patients underwent aortic valve repair [median age 13.4 years (range 1 day to 45 years)].

The bicuspid aortic valve affects 1 to 2% of the population and may be complicated by aortic stenosis or aortic insufficiency and infective endocarditis. The bicuspid aortic valve is associated with abnormalities of the aortic wall such as coarctation of the aorta, aortic dissection, and aortic aneurysm.

Calcific aortic stenosis (AS) is primarily a disease of the elderly, possessing features that are biomechanical as well as systemic and inflammatory in nature, with risk factors and histopathology similar to atherosclerosis. To date no medical therapy has been shown to conclusively alter the progression of the disease, and for those with symptomatic AS,

Myxoma of the aortic valve is exceedingly uncommon. In this article, we report a 58-year-old man with myxoma arising from the aortic valve. Aortic valve replacement was performed, and postoperative histologic examination showed myxoma of aortic valve.
