Abstract
The regurgitant unicuspid aortic valve can be repaired successfully and reproducibly by converting it into bicuspid anatomy. The functional results are comparable with those obtained in reconstructed bicuspid aortic valves. With this approach, replacement can be avoided in most patients with regurgitant unicuspid aortic valves.
