Cardiac surgery simulation - part 2: Step-by-step Konno operation in a preclinical model.

Multimed Man Cardiothorac Surg

November 2023

The Heart Team Cardiocentro Ticino Foundation Via Tesserete 48 Lugano 6900 Switzerland.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study uses a preclinical model of a porcine heart fixed in a plastic mannequin designed to mimic human anatomy, facilitating realistic surgical operations.
  • - This setup enables the performance of key movements and steps involved in significant adult and congenital heart surgeries, particularly the Konno operation.
  • - The Konno operation specifically targets localized subaortic stenosis, which is a narrowing in the left outflow tract or at the junction between the left ventricle and aorta.

The internal geometric ring provides full three-dimensional annular stability while minimizing the dissection of the aortic root, pulmonary artery and right ventricle and avoids reimplanting the coronaries. The external annuloplasty provides a secondary stabilization of the easily accessed fibrous portion of the annulus using the sutures for the internal annuloplasty device and minimizes the sutures above the leaflets. Together they form a complete remodelling of the ventriculo-aortic junction following its exact course.

David Procedure: A 21-year Experience With 300 Patients.

Ann Thorac Surg

June 2023

Department of Cardiac Surgery, University of Lille, CHU Lille, Lille, France. Electronic address:

Background: Valve-sparing aortic root replacement with the David procedure is an alternative to the Bentall procedure in patients with aortic root aneurysm. The aim of this study was to describe our long-term experience with this technique and the predictive factors of late failure.

Methods: Between January 1998 and August 2019, 300 consecutive patients underwent a David procedure.

Aortic valve repair (AVr) aims to preserve the native aortic leaflets and restore normal valve function. In doing so, AVr is a more technically challenging approach than traditional aortic valve replacement. Some of the complexity of repair techniques can be attributed to the unique structure of the functional aortic annulus (FAA), which, unlike the well-defined mitral annulus, is comprised of virtual and functional components.
