NCT03604913

Brief Summary

This study was designed to evaluate the hypothesis that the operative and midterm results of valve-sparing aortic root replacement are equivalent to those of the Bentall. Objective 1: Evaluate short-term (one-to-six months) and mid-term (six-to-forty-eight months) results of aortic valve-sparing procedures. Objective 2: Compare the results of aortic valve-sparing procedures with the group of patients undergoing Bentall procedures during the same period. Objective 3: Assess outcomes of both procedures through evaluation of postoperative: A) primary outcome measures:

  1. 1.Intraoperative or intrahospital death.
  2. 2.Reexploration for bleeding.
  3. 3.Reoperation rate.
  4. 4.Grade of aortic valve regurgitation (0-4).
  5. 5.Grade of aortic valve regurgitation (0-4).
  6. 6.Mean gradient on the aortic valve(mmHg).
  7. 7.Thromboembolism / bleeding.
  8. 8.Prosthetic/native valve endocarditis.
  9. 9.2-year mortality
