Pediatric aortic valve neocuspidization

Abstract

Treatment of pediatric aortic valve disease is controversial. In this regard, interest is growing in the neocuspidization of the aortic valve according to Ozaki. In this video tutorial, we illustrate briefly the entire reconstruction technique of a neoaortic valve with pretreated autologous pericardium used in our institution in pediatric patients by describing a case of an incompetent native tricuspid aortic valve.
