We reviewed our short-term results to assess perioperative echocardiographic changes and repair durability. Nineteen patients (15 men and 4 women; mean age, 60.7 years) underwent this operation between July 1999 and June 2002. All were interviewed to establish their latest functional status, reoperation and survival rates. After a mean follow-up of 40.1 months, all patients were alive and in New York Heart Association functional class I. The echocardiographic grade of aortic regurgitation decreased from 3.2 preoperatively to 1.6 at follow-up. Left ventricular end-diastolic dimension shortened significantly from 6.2 to 5.2 cm. Left ventricular end-systolic dimension decreased from 4.1 to 3.3 cm. Annulus size was also significantly less at 2.2 cm from 2.5 cm preoperatively. At 48 months, freedom from reoperation was 88.9% \u00b1 7.4%. The follow-up was 100% complete. Repair of a prolapsing aortic valve with leaflet suspension and subvalvular annuloplasty is a good procedure and the short-term results are satisfying.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/0218492309104773","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,5,6]],"date-time":"2013-05-06T09:37:22Z","timestamp":1367833042000},"page":"278-281","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Leaflet Suspension and Subvalvular Annuloplasty in Aortic Valve Prolapse"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"17","author":[{"given":"Hiroshi","family":"Izumoto","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kohei","family":"Kawazoe","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Takanori","family":"Oka","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kazuyuki","family":"Ishibashi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hiroshi","family":"Yamamoto","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiovascular Surgery Iwate Medical University Memorial Heart Center Morioka, Iwate, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Fumio","family":"Yamamoto","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiovascular Surgery Iwate Medical University Memorial Heart Center Morioka, Iwate, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2009,6,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-0218492309104773","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0003-4975(99)00420-8"},{"key":"bibr2-0218492309104773","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF02913149"},{"key":"bibr3-0218492309104773","first-page":"383","volume":"11","author":"Izumoto H","year":"2002","journal-title":"J Heart Valve Dis"},{"key":"bibr4-0218492309104773","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0022-5223(19)34225-4"},{"key":"bibr5-0218492309104773","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0022-5223(19)34942-6"},{"key":"bibr6-0218492309104773","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0022-5223(98)70408-8"},{"key":"bibr7-0218492309104773","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.athoracsur.2004.03.040"},{"key":"bibr8-0218492309104773","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S1010-7940(01)00782-5"},{"key":"bibr9-0218492309104773","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0003-4975(02)04136-X"},{"key":"bibr10-0218492309104773","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.athoracsur.2005.03.060"},{"key":"bibr11-0218492309104773","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/021849230801600112"},{"key":"bibr12-0218492309104773","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jtcvs.2006.11.051"},{"key":"bibr13-0218492309104773","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ejcts.2003.09.018"}],"container-title":["Asian Cardiovascular and Thoracic Annals"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/0218492309104773","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/full-xml\/10.1177\/0218492309104773","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/0218492309104773","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,28]],"date-time":"2026-04-28T15:14:12Z","timestamp":1777389252000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1177\/0218492309104773"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2009,6]]},"references-count":13,"journal-issue":{"issue":"3","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2009,6]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1177\/0218492309104773"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/0218492309104773","relation":{},"ISSN":["0218-4923","1816-5370"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0218-4923","type":"print"},{"value":"1816-5370","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2009,6]]}}}
