What are the outcomes and surgical spectrum of cardiac reoperations in children who previously underwent the Ross procedure?
Cardiac reoperations following the Ross procedure in children can be performed with low mortality and good mid-term results, despite their complexity.
Alsoufi et al. (2012) conducted a cohort in Cardiac reoperation following the Ross procedure (n=50). Cardiac reoperation was evaluated on 10-year survival. Cardiac reoperations following the Ross procedure in children were performed with no operative mortality and a 10-year survival rate of 98%.
