Background and aim of the study: HAART 300 is an internal geometric annuloplasty ring. The safety and efficacy of this novel device in aortic valve (AV) repair in a single referral center are reported.
Methods: Twenty patients with trileaflet AV insufficiency with ascending aorta and/or aortic root enlargement were included. Subannular implantation was performed to correct annu
Abstract
Objective: In chronic aortic insufficiency (AI), the method and degree of annular downsizing required to achieve durable coaptation in aortic valve repair (AVr) remains poorly defined. This study evaluated the relationship between leaflet size and annular diameter to predict adequate annular sizing in remodeling AVr.
Methods: Under regulatory supervision, 74 patients with chronic tri-leaflet
