Key result
Minimally invasive valve-sparing aortic root reimplantation shows 0% mortality and major complications.
Why the study?
Valve-sparing aortic root reimplantation is rarely performed using minimally invasive techniques despite being the preferred method for selected patients with aortic root aneurysms.
Observational (n=13)
No
Describes a systematic approach to performing valve-sparing aortic root reimplantation in a minimally invasive fashion.

Minimally invasive valve-sparing root reimplantation is technically feasible; leaves open durability, safety, and applicability in larger series.
Valve-sparing aortic root reimplantation is the technique of choice in appropriately selected patients with aortic root aneurysms. Valve-sparing operations require durable restoration of the structural and functional integrity of the aortic root and valve. These procedures are seldom performed in a minimally invasive fashion. We describe a systematic approach to minimally invasive valve-sparing aortic root reimplantation.

Shah et al. (2018) conducted an observational in Aortic root aneurysm (n=13). Minimally invasive valve-sparing aortic root reimplantation was evaluated on Mortality, stroke, new-onset renal insufficiency, and bleeding. Minimally invasive valve-sparing aortic root reimplantation was performed safely in 13 patients with 0% mortality, stroke, new-onset renal insufficiency, and bleeding.
