Combined orthotopic heart transplantation and prophylactic ascending aorta replacement in a marfan patient

Bir Marfan hastasında ortotopik kalp nakli sırasında profilaktik çıkan aort replasmanı uygulaması daha önce literatürde bildirilmemiştir. Kliniğimizde sınırda çıkan aort dilatasyonu (4.5 cm) bulunan 37 yaşındaki bir Marfan hastasına, ileride gelişebilecek çıkan aort komplikasyonlarından koruma amacı ile başarılı kalp nakli sırasında çıkan aort replasmanı uygulandı.

Bir marfan hastasında kombine ortotopik kalp nakli ve profilaktik çıkan aort replasmanı

Prophylactic replacement of the ascending aorta during orthotopic heart transplantation in a Marfan patient has not been previously reported. In our clinic, a 37-year-old Marfan patient with a borderline dilatation of the ascending aorta (4.5 cm) underwent replacement of the ascending aorta during successful heart transplantation to prevent further complications in the ascending aorta.
