The Ross Procedure in Active Infective Endocarditis: A Comparison With Conventional Prostheses
For IE, despite surgical complexity, the Ross procedure yielded short-term outcomes similar to other procedures. In the midterm, the Ross procedure provides a lower reoperation rate, resulting in significantly fewer composite events. The Ross procedure appears to be a better option for patients with IE, but long-term follow-up is necessary.
