The Ross-Yacoub procedure for aneurysmal autograft roots: A strategy to preserve autologous pulmonary valves
The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 10/27/09
Luciani GB et al. – Root reoperation with pulmonary valve preservation is feasible in the majority of patients with autograft aneurysms, allowing for maintenance of normal quality of life. Referral of patients with a dilated root before the appearance of severe valve insufficiency increases the likelihood of pulmonary valve sparing. Functional behavior of remodeled autograft roots is rewarding; however, continued observation is warranted.
