Evolution over time of aortic root anatomy after aortic valve reimplantation
After a mean of 4 years of follow-up, no significant modification of the relationships among aortic root components occurred. The proximal edge of the polyethylene terephthalate graft lies at the ventricular-arterial junction at a slightly different thickness and height along the annular circumference, especially at the level of right sinus and left-right commissure. This feature persists at follow-up.
