The heart is essential to your body's functioning. When there are complications with your heart, it can be a serious, scary ordeal that can mean changes for you and your lifestyle. If you or a loved one has experienced an aortic root aneurysm, you may want to look into the Columbia Medical Center's options for treating aortic root aneurysms.

An alternative to the conventional valve replacement surgeries, valve sparing aortic root replacement surgery is a fairly new procedure.
