4. Fig 3
Distal pulmonary autograft trimming. Appearance of the neoaortic root after the distal pulmonary autograft is trimmed. The supracoronary pulmonary autograft tissue is resected, leaving no more than approximately 2 to 3 mm above the level of the commissures, in an effort to minimize the amount of pulmonary artery wall tissue exposed to systemic pressures.
