Key Points

Aortic root replacement via the David procedure was successfully performed in a young patient presenting with an aortic root aneurysm and prior mitral valve repair.
Case report documents the complex re-implantation technique utilized to spare the native aortic valve despite underlying FBN1 gene mutation and Marfan syndrome.
Confirms that aortic root replacement can be safely executed after previous mitral valve repair, highlighting durable surgical options for Marfan syndrome patients.

Implication

Case report reveals successful David procedure for aortic root aneurysm after mitral valve repair in Marfan syndrome, highlighting re-implantation feasibility.

Abstract

Marfan’s syndrome is a multisystem connective tissue disorder caused by mutation of FBN1 gene, frequently affects the human cardiac valves. These patients commonly die due to cardiovascular diseases. David procedure has been recognized as a durable treatment option in younger adults for aortic root replacement in aortic aneurysm. But performing a David re-implantation for aortic root replacement in a post cardiac (mitral valve repair/MVR) surgery patient is not an easy task. We hereby present a case of successful David re-implantation of aortic root in a young post MVR patient. (Bangladesh Heart Journal 2024; 39(2): 168-171
