Indications for surgery in root pathology
• Aneurysm
• Presence of dissection
• Endocarditis with root abscess

Indications for surgery in root aneurysm
12
1. Bicuspid Aortic
Valve
13
Bicuspid Aortic Valve (BAV)
• Two functional aortic valve leaflets with two
complete commissures
• Not simply a fusion of two normal cusps
• Incidence: 2-3% of the population, with some
familial clustering
• Associated with coarctation, interrupted aortic
arch, Turner s.
• 3 criteria
o Unequally sized cusps (Larger leaflet is the
"conjoined" leaflet)
o Presence of a central ridge – raphe
o Smooth cusp margins - Excludes tricuspid
valves which fused due to inflammatory
processes (eg, rheumatic fever)
14
BAV Physiology
• Normally functioning bicuspid valve
• Abnormal folding and creasing
• Restricted motion
• Turbulent flow
• Prolonged stress leads to valve damage
15
BAV Pathology
• Aortic Stenosis
• Aortic Insufficiency
• Bacterial Endocarditis
• Aortic root aneurysm and Dissection
16
BAV Pathology
• Aortic Stenosis
o Poorly functioning valves may have
incomplete systolic opening
o Responsible for 80-95 % of aortic
valve disease detected in infancy
• May cause rapid deterioration
• Progression over years is more
common
• Bicuspid valve may be prone to
accelerated aging
• Sclerosis begins in the second decade
of life
• Estimated that 50% of adults with
severe AS have bicuspid valves
17
BAV Pathology
• Aortic Insufficiency
o Isolated AI
─ Prolapse of redundant larger cusp
o AI with aortic root dilatation
18
BAV Pathology
• Aortic aneurysm and dissection
o Approximately 5% of patients
o Abnormal response to
hemodynamic stress
─ Cystic medial necrosis
similar to Marfan’s
─ Dysfunctional
microfibrillar proteins,
endothelial nitric oxide
synthetase, etc.
19
BAV Management
• Surveillance echocardiography
• BP and HR control (ACC/AHA guidelines)
o β-blockers
o ACE inhibitors
• Early surgical referral
o AV repair or replacement if no root aneurysm
o Aortic root replacement if >45-50mm
o TAVR (clinical trial in the US)
• First-degree relative screening

2. Connective Tissue
Disorders
23
Connective Tissue Disorders
• Marfan
o Autosomal dominant
o Mutations in fibrillin 1 gene (FBN1)
• Loeys-Dietz
o Autosomal dominant
o Mutations of the transforming GF b-receptor genes (TGFbR1/2)
• Ehlers-Danlos
o Mutations of the COL5A genes

AORTIC ROOT ANEURYSM
24
Marfan Syndrome
• Autosomal dominant
• Mutations in fibrillin 1 gene (FBN1)
• Clinical diagnosis (Ghent criteria)
o Aortic Root Dilatation Z-score ≥ 2 AND
Ectopia Lentis
o Aortic Root Dilatation Z-score ≥ 2 AND
FBN1
o Ectopia lentis AND FBN1 with known Aortic
Root Dilatation
o Ectopia lentis AND Family History of Marfan
o Aortic Root Dilatation Z-score ≥ 2 + Family
History of Marfan
25
Marfan Syndrome
• Long arms, legs and fingers
• Tall and thin body type
• Scoliosis
• Ectopia lentis
• Pectus excavatum or carinatum
• Flexible joints
• Flat feet
• Crowded teeth
• Stretch marks on the skin that are not related to weight gain or
loss
• Aortic root aneurysm
• MR
26
Marfan Syndrome – Aortic root
27
Loeys-Dietz syndrome
• Autosomal dominant
• Mutations of the transforming GF b-
receptor genes (TGFbR1/2)
• Clinical signs
o Widely-spaced eyes (hypertelorism)
o White of the eye looks blue or gray
o Wide or split uvula
o Cleft palate
o Instability or malformation of the
spine in the neck
o Aortic aneurysm or dissection
28
Ehlers-Danlos syndrome
• Mutations of the COL5A genes
• Clinical signs
o Joint hypermobility affecting both large (elbows, knees) and small (fingers, toes) joints
o Frequent joint dislocations and subluxations
o Soft, smooth skin that may be slightly elastic and bruises easily
o Chronic musculoskeletal pain
o Early-onset osteoarthritis and Osteoporosis
o GI issues: dysmotility, bloating, nausea, vomiting, heartburn, constipation, or hiatal hernia
o mitral valve prolapse or aortic root dilatation
29
3. Aortic Dissection
(Stanford Type A)
30
Type A Dissection
31
32
Surgical principles in Type A dissection
• General
o Excision of the intimal tear
o Ascending aorta replacement
o Aortic valve re-suspension
o Hemi-arch or total arch
reconstruction (if necessary)
o Treatment of aortic root
pathology (if necessary)
• Aortic root surgery
o Aortic valve and root
replacement
o Valve-sparing aortic root
replacement
33
Surgical principles in Type A dissection
• Criteria for aortic root surgery
o Aortic root aneurysm >4.5cm
o Extensive tissue destruction
o Connective tissue disease
