Carefully chosen anastomosis geometry is likely to be able to generate a close-to-normal hemodynamic environment in the aortic root. Greater knowledge of aortic valve remodeling may make possible the creation of favorable flow patterns in the aortic root, through optimization of surgical design to reduce or delay the occurrence of aortic valve insufficiency.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
