    Author: Matsuda H, Hasegawa T, Maekawa T, Okita Y.
    Journal: Ann Thorac Cardiovasc Surg; 2005 Apr; 11(2):132-4. PubMed ID: 15900248.
    Abstract:
    A 23-year-old man was admitted for an aortic root aneurysm with mild aortic valve regurgitation (AR) and a small pressure gradient. At surgery, findings of aortic valve, one normal left posterior commissure and very rudimentary right anterior commissure, was compatible with the uni-commisural aortic valve. Aortic root replacement with valve-sparing technique was performed. Four years later no residual AR was observed.
