  • Title: Sutureless Aortic Valve Replacement: An Easy and Safe Approach for Patients with Anomalous Left Circumflex Coronary Artery.
    Author: Giuseppe Cerillo A, Haxhiademi D, Berti S, Solinas M.
    Journal: J Heart Valve Dis; 2016 Mar; 25(2):145-148. PubMed ID: 27989056.
    Abstract:
    An anomalous origin of the left circumflex coronary artery (LCx) from the right sinus of Valsalva is a frequent coronary problem. This particular condition, though usually silent, is associated with an increased incidence of serious complications during surgical aortic valve replacement (AVR) and transcatheter aortic valve implantation. Here, the cases are described of four patients with an anomalous origin of the LCx from the right sinus of Valsalva who underwent sutureless AVR with the Sorin Perceval S prosthesis. The possible advantages of this approach are also discussed.
