We compared outcomes of patients with prior aortic valve replacement (AVR) versus aortic surgery plus AVR, who underwent reoperative aortic root replacement (ARR) for PVE of the aortic valve.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>METHODS<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>All patients who underwent reoperative ARR for PVE between 2004 and 2021 from 2 aortic centres were included. Two groups were formed based on the presence\/absence of aortic graft: prior aortic surgery (AO) and prior AVR (AV) alone. Inverse propensity treatment weighting matched the groups. The Kaplan\u2013Meier method was used to analyse long-term survival, and Fine and Gray model was used to compare the cumulative incidence of reoperation.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>RESULTS<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>A total of 130 patients were included (AO n\u2009=\u200959; AV n\u2009=\u200971). After matching, AO patients had increased stroke incidence (12.4% vs 0.9%) and renal failure requiring dialysis (11.5% vs 2.5%). In-hospital mortality was comparable (21.5% AO and 18.6% AV). Survival over 5\u2009years was 68.9% (56.6\u201383.8%) in AO and 62.7% (48.1\u201381.7%) in AV (P\u2009=\u20090.70). The cumulative incidence of reoperation was similar [AO 6.3% (0.0\u201313.2%) vs AV 6.1% (0.0\u201315.1%), P\u2009=\u20090.69].<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>CONCLUSIONS<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Reoperative ARRs for prosthetic valve\/graft endocarditis are high-risk procedures.
