Abstract:
We describe our technique for the Ross procedure using a total root technique without any foreign material for autograft support. We insist on technical principles, based on the surgical anatomy of the aortic and pulmonary root, aimed at optimizing aortic root dynamics while ensuring long-term stability of the autograft root.
