Valve-Sparing Root Replacement Compared With Composite Valve Graft Procedures in Patients With Aortic Root Dilation
Abstract Background Although aortic valve-sparing (AVS) operations are established alternatives to composite valve graft (CVG) procedures for patients with aortic root aneurysms, comparative long-term outcomes are lacking. Objectives This study sought to compare the results of patients undergoing AV...

Zusammenfassung: | Abstract Background Although aortic valve-sparing (AVS) operations are established alternatives to composite valve graft (CVG) procedures for patients with aortic root aneurysms, comparative long-term outcomes are lacking. Objectives This study sought to compare the results of patients undergoing AVS procedures with those undergoing CVG operations. Methods From 1990 to 2010, a total of 616 patients age |
