Figure 2 Preoperative (A) and postoperative (B) schematic presentation of the aortic root in the transaortic view. A, Marked dilatation (large arrows) and downward dislocation (small arrows) of the right and noncoronary annuluses were noticed preoperatively. The morphology of each aortic leaflet appeared near normal, and 3 commissures were of normal height. The lengths of the corresponding edges of the 3 leaflets appeared almost equivalent. B, The left coronary sinus was used as a reference because it had a normal appearance. Its length between the annulus and the coronary orifice, the annulus, and the corresponding circumferential length at the sinotubular junction were measured with silk sutures and a ruler. A bovine pericardial patch was individually scalloped according to the aforementioned measurements. The opening was tailored at the corresponding zone for the right coronary orifice. The patches were sutured to the annulus with pledgeted 5-0 polypropylene sutures, passing from the left ventricular side; this uplifted (small dotted arrows) and reduced the size of (large dotted arrows) the annulus, leading to improved leaflet coaptation. The right coronary orifice was secured to the opening of the patch with 6-0 polypropylene sutures. The curves of the patches were then anastomosed along the neighboring commissures up to the level of the sinotubular junction with 5-0 polypropylene sutures to uplift and plicate the aortic annulus, such that the shapes of all reconstructed sinuses were symmetric. Finally, the dilated sinotubular junction and the upper portion of the patch were anastomosed to the Dacron graft, thus achieving a reduction in the size of the sinotubular junction (circled dotted arrow). R, Right coronary sinus; N, noncoronary sinus; L, left coronary sinus; P, tongue-shaped bovine pericardial patch.
