  • Title: Allograft aortic root replacement in 418 patients over a span of 15 years: 1985 to 2000.
    Author: O'Brien MF, Harrocks S, Stafford G, Gardner M, Sparks L, Barnett A.
    Journal: Semin Thorac Cardiovasc Surg; 2001 Oct; 13(4 Suppl 1):180-5. PubMed ID: 11805969.
    Abstract:
    Allograft aortic root replacement for primary aortic valve or ascending aortic root pathology is the favored method of technical implantation. Results in 418 patients over 15 years demonstrate exceedingly low early mortality (<1%), complete eradication of preoperative endocarditis but poor long-term durability in the young age group of 20 years or less.
