Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: We present a case of valve-sparing root reimplantation in a patient with severe aortic regurgitation, in the setting of a bicuspid aortic valve with an aberrant circumflex coronary artery arising from the right coronary artery, thus rendering standard dissection of the aortic root during a David procedure challenging and risky.
