Abstract: | A simple method of checking for bleeding from the proximal anastomosis site in Bentall operations is described. After suturing a Carbo-Seal prosthesis to the aortic annulus, using a folding-over technique, the left ventricle is filled with cardioplegic solution through the prosthetic valve, and the heart is massaged to visualize possible leaks at the level of the suture. |
