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 Ross/Ross-Konno procedure in infancy is a safe and durable solution for aortic stenosis
The objective of this study was to characterize early and midterm outcomes after the Ross/Ross-Konno procedure performed in infancy for severe aortic valve disease.Ross procedure or complex aortic valve repair using pericardium in children: A real dilemma
Difficult to repair aortic valve lesions, requiring the use of a valve substitute, remain controversial in the face of the Ross procedure, despite undeniable technical advances. This study was undertaken to compare midterm outcomes of children treated using the Ross procedure or aortic valvuloplasty for complex aortic valve lesions.Aortic valve repair in children without use of a patch
We aimed to assess the long-term outcomes of children in whom the aortic valve could be repaired without the use of patch material. We hypothesized that if the aortic valve is of sufficiently good quality to perform repair without patches, a durable repair could be achieved.
