[Reconstructive surgery of the aortic valve in rheumatic stenoses].
Recently the number of plastic operations of the cardiac valves is increasing. The authors present an account on 10 patients with stenosis of the aortic valve where they performed a reconstruction without the necessity of a prosthesis. Commissurotomy and rasping can be performed in patients when the basic anatomical shape and dimensions of the valve are preserved. None of the patients died, one was successfully reoperated on account of aortic insufficiency. The authors describe and discuss the tactics and technique of the operation. They discuss the possibility of reconstruction of the aortic valve in patients indicated for aortocoronary reconstruction where the aortic defect appears to be of minor impact.
