A simple technique for aortic valve replacement plus mitral valve repair in a totally calcified infected aortic homograft: A case report

We report a case of aortic valve replacement (AVR) with a sutureless valve in an infected degenerated heavily calcified aortic homograft. This technique simplifies this technical challenge, allows rapid AVR in a heavily calcified aortic root, and avoids performing a redo Bentall operation with its known difficulties and saves time for concomitant heart procedures.
