Prolapse Repair for Aortic Regurgitation in Tricuspid Aortic Valves [1]
This study analyzed results of aortic valve repair in patients with tricuspid aortic valves and aortic regurgitation caused by prolapse, comparing the results in cases caused by cusp fermentation and myxomatous degeneration. Researchers concluded that repair of cusp prolapse in tricuspid aortic valves with preserved root dimensions can be performed successfully, even when there are fenestrations that must be repaired.
