aneurysm, aortic valve reintervention
ANEURYSM
While valve-sparing root replacement (VSRR) is the established treatment for syndromic root aneurysm, there remains a cumulative risk of aortic valve reintervention. In personalised external aortic root support (PEARS), the dilated aorta is supported using a bespoke mesh, optimally respecting valve anatomy. To date, no type A dissections have been observed after PEARS.
