  • Title: A modified technique of Konno aortoventriculoplasty for redo aortic valve replacement procedures.
    Author: Bobylev D, Breymann T, Ono M.
    Journal: Thorac Cardiovasc Surg; 2014 Apr; 62(3):222-3. PubMed ID: 24683179.
    Abstract:
    This article puts forward a modified technique of Konno aortoventriculoplasty for repeat procedures. After incision of the ventricular septum, this approach involves aortic valve replacement using a mechanical valved conduit, reimplantation of the coronary arteries, and graft replacement of the ascending aorta. This modification allows the removal of the diseased ascending aortic wall caused by a previous patch enlargement or poststenotic dilation.
