AB  - INTRODUCTION: The proportion of valve repair procedures is increasing in 
      experienced centers. The aim of the study was to assess the clinical and 
      echocardiographic outcomes after aortic valve reconstruction with a novel 
      surgical technique. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The study group consisted of 30 
      patients (23 male and 7 female) at a mean age of 35 +/- 14 years. In patients with 
      aortic root aneurysm the reimplantation or Florida sleeve technique was used. A 
      sub-commissural annuloplasty, plication of the free edge of the cusp, shaving, 
      and commissurotomy were performed. At this stage of surgery aortic repair was 
      then attempted by cusp extension. Since 2013 the strips have been tailored from 
      extracellular matrix. RESULTS: The mean aortic cross-clamp time was 90 +/- 32 min. 
      The mean cardiopulmonary bypass time was 126 +/- 38 min. There was no in-hospital 
      death. Re-exploration for bleeding was required in 1 patient. During follow-up, 1 
      patient needed reoperation at 1 year due to endocarditis. All patients remained 
      alive in New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class I. The 
      echocardiographic findings remained unchanged in all cases during follow-up. 
      CONCLUSIONS: Our modification of aortic valve repair results in a good outcome.
