Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM OF THE STUDY: An investigation was made as to whether the preoperative aortic annular diameter affects the durability of bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) repair in patients who had undergone concomitant root stabilization with subcommissural annuloplasty (SCA) compared to valve-sparing root reimplantation (VSRR).
