  • Title: Valve-sparing aortic root replacement and aortic valve repair for a 2-year-old girl with Loeys-Dietz syndrome.
    Author: Shiraishi S, Okita Y, Watanabe M, Tsuchida M.
    Journal: Interact Cardiovasc Thorac Surg; 2022 Jun 01; 34(6):1174-1176. PubMed ID: 34964455.
    Abstract:
    We report the case of a 2-year-old girl with Loeys-Dietz syndrome complicated by aortic root dilatation and aortic regurgitation. We performed valve-sparing aortic root replacement with reimplantation technique and aortic valve repair using central plication and free-margin reinforcement simultaneously. The postoperative course was uneventful and the latest echocardiography, 5 years after procedure, revealed trivial aortic insufficiency.
