ABSTRACT
The Ross procedure is gaining acceptance as the procedure of choice for aortic valve replacement in children. We present the case of a 4-month-old child (weight 3.2 kg) suffering from congenital valvar aortic stenosis who underwent a Ross procedure. We believe that this is the youngest patient to have undergone this procedure successfully in the Indian subcontinent.

ABSTRACT
A 37-year-old male patient with dilated cardiomyopathy and end-stage heart failure underwent Batista procedure. After 6 months, he underwent orthotopic heart transplantation. Though he did not survive the procedure, we conclude that Batista procedure may serve as a cost-effective biological bridge to cardiac transplantation.
