Implication

Homograft AVR may be feasible in complex aortic cases with VSD; leaves open durability and outcome data.

Key Points

  • Assess the surgical application and utility of homograft aortic valve replacement in patients presenting with severe aortic incompetence, stenosis, or concomitant cardiac defects.
  • Clinical case series examining patients undergoing homograft replacement of the aortic valve.
  • Review of operative interventions in presentations involving severe aortic incompetence and associated ventricular septal defects.
  • Homograft replacement was applied to manage severe aortic incompetence presenting alongside ventricular septal defect.
  • Surgical interventions were documented across distinct clinical timelines and surgical environments for complex valve pathology.
