Repair of insufficient bicuspid aortic valves [PDF]

open access: possibleThe Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1994
A technique for the repair of bicuspid aortic valves that includes resection of the flail segment of the prolapsing leaflet, annuloplasty, and resection of the raphe, when present, has been reported. To assess the efficacy of this technique in the repair of insufficient bicuspid aortic valves, the results in 72 consecutive patients were assessed.

Semilunar valve switch in aortic insufficiency

European Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 1995
The use of the Ross procedure in young patients is gaining wider acceptance. The need for a foreign pulmonary valve that will require replacement, however, is a serious drawback. To circumvent this problem, we reimplanted the native aortic valve in the pulmonary position in four patients (ages 12, 15, 15 and 17 years old) operated on utilizing the Ross

Aortic Valve Insufficiency: Leaflet Reconstruction Techniques [PDF]

open access: possibleSeminars in Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery: Pediatric Cardiac Surgery Annual, 2012
The introduction of effective and durable leaflet repair techniques have enabled repair of the regurgitant aortic valve. Aortic valve repair is favored to avoid the placement of a prosthesis that the patient will likely outgrow. Furthermore, repair has the potential to reduce the incidence of prosthesis-related complications, including endocarditis ...

Transcatheter valve with a hollow balloon for aortic valve insufficiency

The Multimedia Manual of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 2018
During the past decade transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has revolutionized our approach to heart valve disease. Although largely applied to patients with calcific aortic valve stenosis, there is an unmet clinical need to also treat patients with aortic valve insufficiency in patients with non-calcific aortic valve disorders. The following
