The Ross procedure: state of the art 2011.
The purpose of this paper is to review the current literature and practice of the Ross concept of using the autologous pulmonary valve to replace a diseased aortic valve. The potential advantages and disadvantages of these operations will be evaluated in the context of alternative options and relative risks. The different surgical techniques of subcoronary and full root methods will be discussed and important technical aspects reviewed. Long-term outcomes will be described to the extent these are available, including recent publications describing a survival advantage for the Ross. Brief discussions will be presented regarding hemodynamics, child-bearing, endocarditis, and the use of the Ross in pediatric patients as well as biological adaptability of the living pulmonary autograft.
