Congenital Absence of a Single Pulmonary Valve Cusp Stephen Westaby, Takahiro Katsumata The Annals of Thoracic Surgery Volume 64, Issue 3, Pages 849-851 (September 1997) DOI: 10.1016/S0003-4975(97)00687-5
Fig. 1 Operation process. (A) The right anterior cusp of the pulmonary valve was totally absent (asterisk). (B) The defective sinus has been excised with the dilated subannular infundibulum. (C) The aortic homograft has been trimmed in a monocusp patch with integrity of the noncoronary sinus and the anterior mitral leaflet. (D) The homograft monocusp shows full coaptation with the native cusps. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery 1997 64, 849-851DOI: (10.1016/S0003-4975(97)00687-5)
