Is Additional Cardiac Procedure A Catastrophic Risk During Bentall Operation? Long Term Results in A Tertiary Center

Abstract

The aim of this study was to assess the influences of concomitant cardiac surgery on the risk for mortality and morbidity after Bentall procedure. This retrospective study was a review of patients who underwent Bentall procedure from a single center experience over a 7-year period. Demographic features, surgical data, postoperative period and outcomes were analyzed. Patients with isolated Bentall surgery (Group A) were compared and concomitant cardiac surgery with Bentall procedure were compared (Group B).
