Key result
Valve-sparing root replacement in acute Type A aortic dissection showed 100% survival at 10 years, but freedom from aortic valve reoperation was suboptimal at 69%.

Long-term valve durability after valve-sparing repair in acute Type A dissection remains uncertain in single-center data; leaves open need for multicenter confirmation.

Does valve-sparing root replacement provide long-term valve durability in patients with acute Type A aortic dissection?
Valve-sparing root replacement in acute Type A aortic dissection has suboptimal long-term durability, particularly when gelatin-resorcinol-formaldehyde glue is used for commissural resuspension.
Tanaka et al. (2017) conducted a cohort in Acute Type A aortic dissection (n=24). Valve-sparing root replacement was evaluated on Survival and long-term valve durability. Valve-sparing root replacement in acute Type A aortic dissection showed 100% survival at 10 years, but freedom from aortic valve reoperation was suboptimal at 69%.
