Aortic Valve Repair is a comprehensive summary on the aortic valve repair techniques that are newly developed using the first 500 cases of aortic ring annuloplasty. Aortic valve disease is usually surgically managed by aortic valve replacement, and it is well established in published literature regarding the long-term results, survival rate, durability of the protheses and reoperations rates. Over the past two decades, aortic valve repair (AVr) has evolved into a recognised surgical option for selected patients with aortic insufficiency or proximal aorta aneurysm. Aortic Ring Annuloplasty is a new aspect of aortic valve repair. Studying the first 500 cases of aortic ring annuloplasty, the authors have developed the most effective techniques methods of leaflet and aortic root reconstruction to repair whatever pathology is encountered. Including original illustrations and videos, the book serves as an essential reference for cardiac surgeons in practice. Includes original and never published illustrations and videos to facilitate learningEtiologies of aortic insufficiency repaired using HAART Devices, with 550 devices implanted to dateDissects over 35 different causes of aortic insufficiencyCurrently 90-95% successful repair rate for aortic insufficiency, and operative videos exist for each of these etiologiesWritten by renowned authors in the field
