Fig 1 Transillumination of the aortic root after dissection of the subvalvular plane with view from the (A) noncoronary (NC) sinus and from the (B) right cusp (RC)–left cusp (LC) commissure. (C) Open ring (Extra-Aortic Open Ring, CORONEO, Inc, Montreal, QC, Canada) for isolated aortic valve repair with subvalvular annuloplasty without coronary detachment. (D) Remodeling root reconstruction associated to expansible (25-mm diameter × 3-mm cross-section) aortic annuloplasty ring (Extra-Aortic Low Profile, CORONEO, Inc) for root aneurysm repair with a Gelweave Valsalva tube (Vascutek/Terumo, Renfrewshire, United Kingdom).

Fig 2 (A) The aortic root has been opened at the commissural level in between the right and left coronary sinuses and spread apart, and the cusps were removed. The blue line indicates the sinotubular junction (STJ), and the green line indicates the aortic annulus (AA). The scale drawing shows the subvalvular dissection plane line and the schematic 3-dimensional aortic annular view from the (B) right (R) cusp, (C) noncoronary (NC) cusp, and (D) left (L) cusp.
