AbstractSimultaneous replacement of the ascending aorta and aortic valve has always been a challenging procedure. Introduction of composite conduits, through various ingenious procedures and their modifications, has changed the outlook of patients with aortic valve disease and ascending aorta pathology. In the past 70 years, progress of surgical techniques and prosthetic materials has allowed such patients to undergo radical procedures providing excellent early and long-term results in both young and elderly patients. This article aims to review the most important technical advances in the treatment of aortic valve disease and ascending aorta aneurysms recognizing the important contributions in this field.

Aim. To assess the potential of prevention cardiogenic embolism by resection of left atrium appendage (LAA) during open heart surgery in patients with atrial fibrillation (AFib). Materials and methods. Study design - cohort prospective. Study group consisted of 19 patients with AFib whom during open heart surgery for coronary and/or valvular disease additional radical resection of LAA was made. After removal of the appendage two-layer linear suture to left atrium was performed without leaving a stump. Control group consisted of 20 patients with AFib, in whom during open heart surgery LAA remained intact. Long-term results were studied using CROQ telephone questionnaire. Results. There was no hospital mortality in both groups. Long-term results in control group were followed up to 6 years, in study group up to 2 years. Radical resection of LAA in patients with AFib reduced the risk of thromboembolic events in long-term period. In control group there were 4 strokes (2 of them were fatal), but no strokes in study group (p < 0,05). Conclusion. Radical resection of LAA in patients with AFib during open heart surgery for coronary and/or valvular disease prevents cardiogenic arterial embolism.
