Since they were first introduced, the remodeling and reimplantation techniques have undergone many refinements and modifications. We describe the technical steps and outcomes of a modified David V procedure, adapted from the Stanford modification, performed at our institution.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Between November 2007 and March 2025, 417 patients underwent valve-sparing aortic root replacement at our institution. Of those, 185 patients underwent an adapted Stanford modification of valve-sparing aortic root replacement. A retrospective review of these patients was performed from a prospectively maintained institutional database.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Mean age was 47.6\u2009\u00b1\u200915.7 years and 81% were male. About 20.5% of patients had a heritable thoracic aortic disorder and 22.1% had a bicuspid aortic valve. The technique of our modified David V procedure is described. There was one post-operative mortality (0.5%) and no 30-day reinterventions. Early postoperative echocardiographic follow-up within 90 days was available in 91% of patients (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">n<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u2009168), with no cases of greater than moderate aortic insufficiency.
