  • Title: Radiopaque Marker Addition During Aortic Root Replacement With the Use of a Freestyle Porcine Bioprosthesis.
    Author: Crowley OM, Doty JR.
    Journal: Ann Thorac Surg; 2017 Jul; 104(1):e95-e96. PubMed ID: 28633278.
    Abstract:
    Aortic root replacement is indicated for aortic root aneurysm, small aortic root, and most root abscesses. This report describes the placement of a radiopaque marker during aortic root replacement using a Freestyle porcine bioprosthesis. This marker is a useful landmark during fluoroscopy for transcatheter valve-in-valve aortic valve replacement in the event of bioprosthesis degeneration.
