Valve Sparing Aortic Root Replacement Philadelphia, Pennsylvania


 


Has an aortic aneurism overwhelmed you or the ones you love? It can trigger tremendous stress for everyone involved because at any time a rupture can cause a nightmare for your family. Almost as difficult as living with the condition is finding treatment. Many of the prevalent surgeries can bring a lifetime strings, never really freeing you from health issues. At CUMC Aortic Surgery Program, Dr. Allan Stewart MD, leads a multidisciplinary group with expertise in all types of acute and chronic aortic problems. As the national leader of the innovative aortic root replacement procedure, the CUMC Aortic Surgery Program can save you a lifetime of complications and compromises. Live without loosing your live. Those in the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania area contact the Aortic Surgery Program today.


Traditional aortic procedures either use a natural transplant or a synthetic graft to restore function, but both are far from perfect. While the natural transplant degrades over time requiring replacement surgery, the synthetic graft requires that patients take blood thinners for the rest of their life. The David Procedure, also know as valve sparing aortic root replacement is a state-of-theart procedure that can keep much of the aortic valve intact allowing patients and their loved ones to maintain the lives they enjoyed.


CUMC's excellent care doesn't end with innovative procedures. Working with the Division of Vascular Surgery, they offer a lifetime of follow up care and support. CUMC located in the heart of Midtown Manhattan, NYC is known around the world as a leader in education, research and clinical outcomes. This same level of care extends to the Aortic Surgery Program. Since 2005, 60 valve sparing procedures have been preformed without any mortalities or serious complications. The CUMC Division of Cardiac Surgery performs over 1600 open heart procedures each year, and is know as one of the top 10 US cardiac programs consistently for the last decade.


Expertise in all types of acute and chronic aortic problems including:



  • Acute Type A and Type B dissection

  • Ascending aortic and arch aneurysms

  • Aortic root reconstruction - including homograft procedures, valve sparing root replacement, and mechanical valve conduits


For the life of you and your family you want the best. Dr. Stewart had dedicated his carrier to the research and treatment of aortic valve conditions. The valve sparing aortic root replacement procedure can save your life without giving up your lifestyle. Those in the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania area contact the CUMC today.
