“…Wu proposed another procedure using an autologous pulmonary cusp to replace the prolapsed aortic cusp with satisfactory results. Rocha‐e‐Silva performed the Ross procedure in one patient with perimembranous ventricular septal defect and aortic insufficiency due to a prolapsed right cusp. Huang proposed a new valvuloplasty technique with a suspension string formed by the row of knots and supported by a Teflon felt pledget sandwich at each of two commissures and the free margin of the prolapsed cusp was attached to the suspension string by a continuous suture.…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
