Aortic Root Surgery

This is for people with aortic root aneurysms and abnormal aortic valve leaflets. Your surgeon removes your aortic root and replaces it with a surgical graft that contains a mechanical valve.

This is similar to the mechanical composite root replacement. Your surgeon replaces your aortic root with a graft that contains a bioprosthetic valve.

This procedure is for patients with aortic root aneurysms and abnormal aortic valve leaflets. It involves removing the diseased tissue and valve leaflets, then replacing them with a full porcine aortic root and valve. The left and right coronary arteries are reattached to the pig root, which is then connected back to the ascending aorta.

This is the optimal procedure if you have an aortic root aneurysm and normal aortic valve leaflets. Your surgeon inserts a customized graft to replace the diseased aortic root tissue. Then, they reimplant the aortic valve into this graft.

This procedure involves the transfer of the pulmonary valve to the aortic root position to provide an autologous solution for aortic valve disease. The pulmonary valve is replaced with a cadaveric pulmonary valve.
