What is Pulmonary vs Aortic Root Dimensions in Adults about?

This study compares the dimensions of pulmonary and aortic roots and cusps in adults with normal valves using computed tomography, focusing on implications for the Ross procedure. Findings indicate that while the pulmonary root has similar cusp sizes to the aortic root, it has a different shape, leading to a lower effective height for the pulmonary cusp. The results suggest that stabilizing the autograft to normal aortic dimensions may improve outcomes in Ross procedure planning.
