Pediheart Podcast #367: LV Function Following The Ross Operation

This week we review a recent report on LV strain following the Ross operation. Can this sort of functional analysis help predict remodeling after aortic valve replacement? How can the type of Ross potentially affect heart function after the operation? Why might some parameters of LV strain improve but others not following surgery? Can preoperative strain measurements predict perioperative course? How does the addition of a Konno to a Ross change the outcomes of function? We speak with Chief of Cardiovascular Surgery at Primary Children's Hospital in Utah, Dr. S. Adil Husain and 3rd year integrated cardiac surgical resident Michal Schaffer of the University of Utah about these and other topics related to LV function following the Ross operation in children. · DOI: 10.1007/s00246-025-04124-9
