Long-term result of aortic root remodeling using the Florida sleeve technique in a patient with connective tissue dysplasia and aortic root aneurysm without aortic insufficiency

Abstract

Aortic root remodeling using the Florida sleeve technique was proposed as a simpler alternative to classical reconstructive interventions in patients with aortic root aneurysm without aortic insufficiency. We present a 10-year result of valve-sparing surgical treatment using the Florida sleeve technique in a patient with connective tissue dysplasia and aortic root aneurysm.
