Provides a conduit-based remodeling option for valve-sparing root replacement; leaves open durability and comparative outcomes.
Aortic root replacement with sparing of the aortic valve in selected patients with isolated sinus of Valsalva or sinotubular aneurysm and a normal valve provides the advantages of an anticoagulation-free milieu and a more physiological root hemodynamic. The clinical efficacy and durability have been documented. This report describes a simple and reproducible technique of aortic root remodeling that uses a prosthetic conduit as originally pioneered by Magdi Yacoub and later by Tirone David.

Sin et al. (2010) studied Isolated sinus of Valsalva or sinotubular aneurysm with a normal valve. Valve-Sparing Aortic Root Replacement (aortic root remodeling) was evaluated. This report describes a simple and reproducible technique of aortic root remodeling using a prosthetic conduit for valve-sparing aortic root replacement.
