  • Title: Valve-sparing operation for aortic root aneurysm in patients with bicuspid aortic valve.
    Author: Suematsu Y, Morota T, Kubota H, Ninomiya M, Takamoto S.
    Journal: Ann Thorac Surg; 2002 Sep; 74(3):907-8. PubMed ID: 12238860.
    Abstract:
    Aortic root aneurysms are not rare in patients with bicuspid aortic valve, but valve-sparing operations to treat them remain challenging. We describe our surgical method of reconstructing only two commissures, which is extremely simple and easy to reproduce without aortic stenosis.
