  • Title: The Cabrol technique for replacement of the aortic valve and totally calcified ascending aorta: a case report.
    Author: Mossuto E, Milano A, Bortolotti U.
    Journal: J Heart Valve Dis; 1994 Jan; 3(1):98-100. PubMed ID: 8162226.
    Abstract:
    Simultaneous replacement of the ascending aorta and aortic valve with a valved conduit was performed in a patient with aortic valve disease and totally calcified ascending aorta. Coronary circulation could be re-established by using the Cabrol technique, but only after extensive decalcification of the aortic wall surrounding the coronary ostia. This technique appears particularly suitable in patients who require combined replacement of the ascending aorta and aortic valve in the presence of diffuse calcification of the aortic root.
