Overview
Aortic valve repair is a surgical procedure used to correct some aortic valve disorders. It is an alternative to aortic valve replacement. Aortic valve repair is performed less often and is more technically difficult than mitral valve repair. There are two surgical techniques tor repair an aortic valve:
- The Remodeling Technique, established by Sir Magdi Yacoub and
- The Reimplantation Technique, established by Tirone David.

Major Criteria for Aortic Valve Selection (DO NOT EDIT) [1]
Class I |
"1. A mechanical prosthesis is recommended for AVR in patients with a mechanical valve in the mitral or tricuspid position. (Level C)" |
"2. A bioprosthesis is recommended for AVR in patients of any age who will not take warfarin or who have major medical contraindications to warfarin therapy. (Level C)" |
Class IIa |
"1. Patient preference is a reasonable consideration in the selection of aortic valve operation and valve prosthesis. A mechanical prosthesis is reasonable for AVR in patients under 65 years of age who do not have a contraindication to anticoagulation. A bioprosthesis is reasonable for AVR in patients under 65 years of age who elect to receive this valve for lifestyle considerations after detailed discussions of the risks of anticoagulation versus the likelihood that a second AVR may be necessary in the future. (Level C)" |
"2. A bioprosthesis is reasonable for AVR in patients aged 65 years or older without risk factors for thromboembolism. (Level C)" |
"3. Aortic valve rereplacement with a homograft is reasonable for patients with active prosthetic valve endocarditis. (Level C)" |
Class IIb |
"1. A bioprosthesis might be considered for AVR in a woman of childbearing age. (Level C)" |
