A modified technique of Konno aortoventriculoplasty for redo aortic valve replacement procedures

Dmitry Bobylev et al. Thorac Cardiovasc Surg. 2014 Apr.

Abstract

This article puts forward a modified technique of Konno aortoventriculoplasty for repeat procedures. After incision of the ventricular septum, this approach involves aortic valve replacement using a mechanical valved conduit, reimplantation of the coronary arteries, and graft replacement of the ascending aorta. This modification allows the removal of the diseased ascending aortic wall caused by a previous patch enlargement or poststenotic dilation.
