Fibrous skeleton reconstruction for invasive aortic and mitral valve endocarditis. (September 2020) - Miletic, Kyle
Invasive endocarditis of the aortic and mitral valves with involvement of the intervalvular fibrosa is a particular surgical challenge. We describe a technique for aortic and mitral valve replacement with concomitant reconstruction of the intervalvular fibrosa, utilizing a folded bovine pericardial patch (Commando operation).
