A 13-year-old male presented with neoaortic root dilatation and severe aortic valve regurgitation 13 years following an arterial switch operation. The valve cusps were unbalanced due to an enlarged non-coronary cusp. A valve-sparing reimplantation with a cusp plication was performed which resulted in a competent valve with trivial regurgitation. Thus, even in an unbalanced cusp, valve-sparing reimplantation can be used for neoaortic root dilatation and valve regurgitation after an arterial switch operation.
一名13岁男性在动脉调转手术13年后出现新主动脉根部扩张和严重主动脉瓣反流。由于非冠状动脉瓣叶增大,瓣叶不平衡。进行了保留瓣膜的再植入术并进行瓣叶折叠,结果瓣膜功能良好,仅有微量反流。因此,即使在瓣叶不平衡的情况下,保留瓣膜的再植入术也可用于动脉调转手术后的新主动脉根部扩张和瓣膜反流。
