Bentall Procedure Using Cryopreserved Valved Aortic Homografts: Mid- to Long-Term Results
AUTOR(ES)
Christenson, Jan T.
RESUMO
The Bentall procedure is the standard operation for patients who have lesions of the ascending aorta associated with aortic valve disease. In many cases, however, mechanical prosthetic conduits are not suitable. There are few reports in the English-language medical literature concerning the mid- to long-term outcome of Bentall operations with cryopreserved homografts. Therefore, we reviewed our experience with this procedure and valved homografts.
