Abstract
This report concerns a 73-year-old woman who presented with asymptomatic aortic root an-eurysm with severe aortic regurgitation. The purpose of this article is to present our first successful case for emergency aortic root replacement (Bentall operation) that involves annular implantation of a pericardial valved conduit (Bioconduit TM, Biointegral Surgical, Inc., Ontario, Canada) and to discuss some essential technical clue issues related to this approach.
