Structured PICO

Does an ePTFE-autologous aortic hybrid valve provide safe and effective right ventricular outflow tract reconstruction in pediatric patients undergoing the Ross procedure?

Population

14 pediatric and young adult patients (age 5-18 years) undergoing the Ross procedure requiring right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) reconstruction

Intervention

Implantation of a hybrid valve combining autologous aortic valve and expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) valves (posterior wall reconstructed using autologous aortic wall with a noncoronary cusp, anterior wall reconstructed using a patch made of bovine pericardium or ePTFE with bicuspid ePTFE valves)

Outcome

Mortality, morbidity, and need for reoperation during follow-uphard clinical

An ePTFE-autologous aortic hybrid valve for RVOT reconstruction during the Ross procedure demonstrated excellent mid- to long-term safety, hemodynamic performance, and potential for growth in a small pediatric cohort.
