Abstract

The modified Bentall procedure (MBP), after over 50 years from its introduction, still represents an extremely valid option in patients with aortic valve disease and aneurysms of the ascending aorta or the aortic root. Late complications following MBP are substantially rare but whenever they occur they represent a real surgical challenge. For this reason, we were very interested in reading the article by Comentale et al. published in the Journal of Cardiac Surgery. The authors report a patient who developed after 18 months a giant pseudoaneurysm of the right coronary button which was repaired successfully.
