Surgeon Q&A: Ross Procedure Reoperations with Dr. Michael Ibrahim

https://www.Heart-Valve-Surgery.com - The advantages of the Ross Procedure for patients are well-documented. Select patient benefits of the Ross Procedure include (i) the restoration of normal life expectancy, (ii) the use of living tissue in the aortic valve position, and (iii) no requirement for patients to use blood thinners. However, patients still have important questions and concerns about the possibility of a reoperation if the aortic valve or the pulmonary valve fails after a Ross Procedure. In this video, Dr. Michael Ibrahim, a leading cardiac surgeon from Penn Medicine in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, answers critical questions about Ross Procedure re-operations including: 1. Which valve tends to fail first following a Ross Procedure - the aortic valve or the pulmonary valve? 2. Can a transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) be used to replace a failing aortic valve or pulmonary valve after a Ross Procedure? 3. For younger patients, is it possible that a surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) may be better suited than TAVR for a failing aortic valve or pulmonary valve after a Ross Procedure.
