AI Article Synopsis
- Aortic root replacement using a biological conduit offers good blood flow but doesn't last long.
- This study details six patients who successfully received a Perceval-S surgical aortic valve after their previous biological valve failed.
- The report highlights key technical aspects of the surgery and emphasizes the need for correct valve sizing to ensure success.
Article Abstract
Aortic root replacement with a biological conduit results in excellent hemodynamics but has limited durability. We report a series of six patients who underwent successful Perceval-S surgical aortic valve implantation following surgical deterioration of a biological valve composite conduit and discuss the technical details and the importance of appropriate valve sizing for this procedure.
