  • Title: A technique to reposition sinotubular junction in aortic valve reimplantation procedures with the De Paulis Valsalva graft.
    Author: Maselli D, Minzioni G.
    Journal: Eur J Cardiothorac Surg; 2006 Jan; 29(1):107-9. PubMed ID: 16337392.
    Abstract:
    Sinotubular junction reconstruction in reimplantation type of valve-sparing aortic procedure can present some problem when a Valsalva graft is used. Since in the Valsalva graft the sinotubular junction height is predetermined, correct matching with native commissures height can be difficult. We propose a method by which it is possible to create a new sinotubular junction in Valsalva graft without altering its original configuration.
