- Root Reimplantation and Aortic Annuloplasty With External Ring in Bicuspid Aortic Valve: An Anatomical ComparisonSeminars in Thoracic and Cardiovascular SurgeryVol. 34Issue 3
- PreviewAortic annuloplasty has demonstrated to be a protective factor in valve-sparing root replacement and aortic valve repair. Both reimplantation for aortic root aneurysms and external ring annuloplasty for isolated aortic regurgitation have demonstrated good long-term results. The aim of this anatomical study is to compare aortic reimplantation with Valsalva graft with aortic external ring annuloplasty in bicuspid aortic valves, analyzing their morphological features with CT scan. We selected 56 patients with bicuspid aortic valve who underwent reimplantation procedure with Valsalva graft or external ring annuloplasty; after propensity-matching, 2 homogeneous groups of 10 patients each were obtained.
