Abstract
Surgical treatment of aortic root and ascending aorta aneurysms with aortic insufficiency
is still controversial. A valve-sparing operation is the procedure of choice for such
patients, and the reimplantation technique is preferable. We describe a simple technique
for aortic root reconstruction that has been successfully performed for patients with
aneurysms of aortic root and ascending aorta with aortic insufficiency.
