This study aims to evaluate outcomes in patients with BAV using the reimplantation (David) technique.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>Consecutive adult patients with BAV, aortic root aneurysm, and/or aortic valve insufficiency (AI) undergoing VSRR (reimplantation) were included from 5 centers experienced in reimplantation procedures. Patients were subcategorized into 2 groups with different primary indications for operation: (1) aneurysm, and (2) isolated AI. Exclusion criteria included acute aortic dissection, endocarditis, and valvular-stenosis.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>In total, 498 patients were included. Mean age was 45.4 years (±11.8 years); median follow-up was 5.4 years (interquartile range, 2.3-8.7 years). Group 1 included aneurysm (n = 144) and group 2 included AI (n = 354). There was 1 in-hospital death. Survival (overall) was 93.4% (95% confidence interval [CI], 92-97%) at 10 years, with no difference between groups (P = .93) observed.

Isolated AI and cusp abnormalities are associated with greater reintervention rates and may reflect more advanced leaflet disease. The reimplantation technique, when performed in expert centers, appears to be an excellent treatment strategy in BAV.</p>","PeriodicalId":49975,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.9,"publicationDate":"2025-02-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143460455","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
