“…It avoids the long-term risks of anticoagulation, allows growth and postpones AVR to an older age where a more definite AV substitute could be implanted. In the last decade, there has been a threefold increase in AV repairs (1) partly because of favourable results published in adults with low reintervention rates and long-term valverelated complications (1,3). In recent published cohorts, the freedom from AV reintervention following pediatric valve repairs ranged between 50% and 80% at 10 years, with a five-year median time to reoperation (1).…”

“…In the past decade, favorable results in the adult patients and the emergence of a systematic approach to the AV partly explain the 3-fold increase in pediatric AV repairs. 1 The effective height (eH) is defined as the difference between the central free margins and the atrioventricular junction and is used as predictor of valve repair durability in adult patients. 2 , 3 Indeed, a postoperative eH <9 mm was associated with a higher risk of AV reintervention in the long-term.…”

“…In addition, further descriptive studies such as the important work by this talented group from Verona could lead to a truly mechanistic understanding of the cellular processes that determine autograft dilation, akin to the molecular breakthroughs in aortic dilation associated with Marfan syndrome. 10,11 As our understanding of the molecular landscape of the dilated autograft evolves, multiple important questions arise. Are the observed proteomic signatures the cause or the consequence of the failing neoaortic root?…”

“…Are there molecular targets for drug therapy in this setting as in the evolving medical approaches to aortic dilation in Marfan syndrome? 10,11 Could the vulnerable autograft be protected from dilation during the years of somatic growth with targeted medical therapy?…”
