Congenital: Aortic Valve
Outcomes of aortic valve repair in children resulting in bicuspid anatomy: Is there a need for tricuspidization?
We aimed to assess outcomes after aortic valve repair leading to bicuspid valve anatomy in children.The utility of aortic valve leaflet reconstruction techniques in children and young adults
The treatment of aortic valve disease in children and adolescents requires an individualized approach to provide a long-term solution with optimal hemodynamic profile. The role of aortic leaflet reconstruction techniques is evolving.Aortic stenosis of the neonate: A single-center experience
Because data for neonates are limited, optimal management of critical aortic stenosis remains controversial (balloon valvotomy [BV] or open valvoplasty [OV]). In a center with balanced experience in both methods, we hypothesized that OV can provide a better individualized approach than blunt BV and better serve long-term outcomes.
