Case success with the David procedure suggests feasibility in selected patients; leaves open need for larger studies before wider adoption.
Valve-sparing aortic root replacement (VSRR) is an established treatment method for aortic root dilatation and aortic valve insufficiency (AI). It was developed to restore the aortic valve functions in patients of aortic root aneurysms with morphologically normal aortic valve. We hereby present a case of 67 years, male, with aortic root aneurysm and severe aortic regurgitation who was treated successfully by David’s procedure for valve sparing aortic root replacement technique.

Gupta et al. (2022) conducted a case report in Aortic root aneurysm and severe aortic regurgitation (n=1). David procedure (valve-sparing aortic root replacement) was evaluated on Postoperative aortic valve function and clinical recovery. The David procedure successfully restored normal aortic valve function and flow in a 67-year-old male with an aortic root aneurysm and severe aortic regurgitation.
