Abstract
- Surgical treatment of infective endocarditis remains a challenge, with concerns of optimal prosthesis selection and risks of recurrent infection remaining paramount. The pulmonary autograft has unique features which may make it the ideal aortic valve substitute, especially in infectious endocarditis. We describe strategic considerations and technical details in performing a Ross procedure in a young patient with acute aortic valve endocarditis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
