ABSTRACT
Objective:
To study the Ross procedure in surgery for aortic valve disease.Methods:
From October, 1994 to May, 2002, 7 patients underwent Ross operation for aortic valve diseases. Pulmonary homografts were used for reconstruction of right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT). Among them, male 4, female 3, age from 11 to 44 years old [average (28?10) years]. All had severe aortic valve regurgitation, 2 associated with moderate aortic valve stenosis, 1 with bicuspid aortic valve, 1 with atrium septal defect, and 1 with ventricular septal defect. Pulmonary valve function was normal in all patients.Results:
There was no operative death. One patient died 3 years later of SBE. Echocardiography indicated the normal function of aortic and pulmonary valve and excellent heart function.Conclusion:
Ross operation provides is difficult but yields excellent clinical results.
