Title: Valve-sparing aortic root remodeling with reinforcement of the proximal aortic suture-line. Author: Calcaterra D, Garcia L, Panos A, Salerno TA, Ricci M. Journal: J Card Surg; 2009; 24(5):539-40. PubMed ID: 19740295.

Herein we describe a simple technique that may be used in valve-sparing root operations to prevent bleeding and improve annular stability.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
