  • Title: Valve-sparing aortic root replacement after cocaine-induced acute ascending aortic dissection.
    Author: Dobrilovic N, Stockwell PH, Singh AK.
    Journal: J Card Surg; 2011 Mar; 26(2):207-10. PubMed ID: 21281343.
    Abstract:
    Cocaine-induced ascending aortic dissection is being recognized with increasing frequency. We present two cases of patients treated using valve-sparing aortic root replacement after cocaine-induced aortic root dissection. Valve-sparing aortic root replacement represents an alternative surgical technique that may be particularly well-suited toward this younger, noncompliant patient population.
