Abstract
Aortic valve replacement (AVR) in patients with severe aortic root calcification is technically a very difficult procedure which requires a long cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) time, especially in patients undergoing complex procedures such as multivalve or valve and coronary surgery. We report a case of successful AVR with an innovative approach in a patient with an extensively calcified aortic root and concomitant tricuspid valve regurgitation who underwent mitral valve replacement 20 years ago.
