DOI: 10.1053/j.semtcvs.2021.05.019
Abstract: The long-term survival and reoperation rate in chronic renal failure (CRF) on hemodialysis (HD) patients after aortic valve/root replacement (AVR/ARR) with a stentless bioprosthesis is unknown. From 1992-2015, 1941 patients underwent AVR/ARR with stentless valve… read more here.

DOI: 10.1053/j.semtcvs.2025.02.002
Abstract: Classic teachings identified 6 cm as the inflection point at which complications from ascending aortic aneurysmal disease, namely dissection or rupture, increase substantially. As a consequence, 5.5 cm has been utilized as the cutoff for… read more here.

Decellularized aortic homografts versus mechanical composite grafts for aortic root replacement
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2024 at "European Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery"
DOI: 10.1093/ejcts/ezae314
Abstract: Abstract OBJECTIVES Mechanical composite valve grafts (MCVGs) are the first-line therapy for aortic root replacement in young adults. Decellularized aortic homografts (DAH) present a promising novel alternative due to their lower thrombogenicity. We aimed to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000043583
Abstract: Hemostasis at the aortic root during replacement surgery for acute Stanford type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) can be technically challenging due to tissue fragility, often leading to fatal bleeding. We adopted a double-felt pledget technique… read more here.

Aortic annulus elevation for aortic valve and root replacement
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Journal of Cardiac Surgery"
DOI: 10.1111/jocs.16261
Abstract: Aortic valve and root replacements require an in‐depth understanding of the aortic root and annulus. Both structures can be asymmetric at times, and this needs to be recognized and taken into consideration when performing valve‐sparing… read more here.
