A simple method for the quantification and correction of aortic cusp prolapse by means of free margin plication Munir Boodhwani, MD, MMSc, Laurent de Kerchove, MD, David Glineur, MD, Gebrine El Khoury, MD The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery Volume 139, Issue 4, Pages 1075-1077 (April 2010) DOI: 10.1016/j.jtcvs.2009.04.037 Copyright © 2010 The American Association for Thoracic Surgery Terms and Conditions

Figure 1 Aortotomy and valve assessment. A, After a transverse aortotomy 1 cm above the sinotubular junction, axial traction is applied (perpendicular to the annular plane) to the 3 commissural retraction sutures (blue arrows), and prolapse of the right coronary cusp and a fibrous band (black arrows) are observed. An additional retraction suture might facilitate exposure (green arrow). B, A 7-0 polypropylene suture is passed through the middle of the 2 reference cusps, and gentle upward traction (blue arrow) is applied. This indicates the desired height and free margin length of the prolapsing cusp.

Figure 2 Quantification and correction of cusp prolapse. A, The prolapsing cusp is retracted parallel to the reference cusp (white arrow), and a 6-0 polypropylene suture is passed through the free margin from the aortic to ventricular side at the point at which it meets the center of the reference cusp. B, The direction of traction on the prolapsing cusp is reversed (white arrow), and the same suture is passed from the ventricular to the aortic side of the cusp, where it meets the middle of the reference cusp and the suture is tied (C). D, The plication is extended by about 5 to 10 mm onto the body of the aortic cusp by adding interrupted or running locked 6-0 polypropylene sutures. E, Valve appearance after the addition of subcommissural annuloplasty sutures.
