Abstract

A right anterior minithoracotomy is gaining wider acceptance among the members of the surgical community for the treatment of isolated aortic valve replacement. Usually, the cardiopulmonary bypass circuit is implanted either totally peripherally or with 1 cannula in a central position and the other in a peripheral one. This procedure has its drawbacks because it adds potential peripheral morbidity during or after the operation. At our center, during the last year, we have developed some tips and tricks in order to establish in most of the patients a total central cardiopulmonary bypass procedure. We explain this technique in our video tutorial. We think that this approach may help other surgical teams to embrace a right anterior minithoracotomy because it is similar to what we do routinely by sternotomy., (© The Author 2021.

Abstract

The Ross procedure is now a well established treatment for aortic valve pathology in young adult patients. However, there are several technical aspects of this operation that are still under debate. One of them is the necessity for reconstruction of the right ventricular outflow tract. Cryopreserved or decellularized pulmonary homografts are the gold standard but, in some cases, and especially in urgent patients, their availability cannot be guaranteed. Stentless xenografts (such as the Medtronic Freestyle Aortic Root) can be inappropriate for some patients with large right outflow tracts, because it can be difficult to suture them without tension. The use of bio conduits handmade using straight Dacron grafts and stented xenografts can be helpful as a third choice.  In this video tutorial we demonstrate our technique for right ventricular outflow tract reconstruction in a young adult patient. We believe that our technique should be included in the armamentarium of every Ross surgeon for use in adult patients. However, long-term outcomes for these stented xenografts in the right outflow position should be carefully evaluated in the future., (© The Author 2016.
