Aortic annular erosion and abscess are serious complications of prosthetic aortic valve endocarditis and can be treated with aortic valve translocation and left ventricle outflow tract reconstruction. These two surgical techniques seem to have similar early postoperative outcomes, and their use can be considered an option after the failure of conventional surgical methods.
