Vasilyev, MD, Carlos Javier Cornelis, MD, Pablo Garcia Delucis, MD, Pedro J. del Nido, MD  The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery  Volume 157, Issue 1, Pages (January 2019) DOI: /j.jtcvs Copyright © 2018 The American Association for Thoracic Surgery Terms and Conditions

3 Figure 1 The aortic valve pressurization device consists of a pressurization chamber that is secured inside the transected aorta, a working chamber through which an endoscope is introduced, and side ports for delivering pressurized perfusate and introduction of measurement gauges.

4 Figure 2 Leaflet coaptation can be measured using a gauge consisting of a thin metal rod with a 1-cm diameter disk at one end. A plastic tube covers the rod and can be slid along it. Starting with the tube completely covering the rod and the disk pulled flush with the ventricular surface of the closed valve (A), the tube is pulled back until its distal end is just visible above the free edges of the coapted leaflets (B). The coaptation height can be measured at the proximal end of the gauge as the distance from the end of the rod to the end of the tube (dimension shown in green). Starting with the tube completely covering the rod and the disk pulled flush with the ventricular surface of the closed valve (C), the tube is pulled back until its distal end is just visible above the free edges of the coapted leaflets (D).

5 Figure 3 Endoscopic view of normal aortic valve under diastolic conditions showing leaflet coaptation near the valve center and a normal pattern of collagen fiber bundles.

6 Figure 4 Endoscopic view showing porcine model of aortic regurgitation in which the right coronary sinus and leaflet have been surgically reduced. We then repaired the valve by plicating a portion of the left coronary sinus, and we measured central coaptation length in the repaired valve using the flexible plastic scale.
