Abstract
This systematic review illustrates that rates of aortic root reoperation after the Bentall procedure have decreased over the years. However, late mortality, major bleeding, and thromboembolic complications remain a concern. This report may be used to benchmark the potential therapeutic benefit of novel surgical approaches, such as valve-sparing aortic root replacement.
