What is a Bentall Procedure

What should you know about it?

The Bentall procedure is a complex heart surgery that is used to treat serious problems with the aortic valve and the part of the aorta that is connected to it. In this surgery, both the damaged valve and the affected section of the aorta are removed and replaced with a strong man-made tube that includes a new valve. This procedure helps fix two major heart issues at once, giving patients relief from their symptoms.

Bentall procedures

What are the health concerns that can be treated by Bentall procedure?

Doctors usually suggest the Bentall procedure for people who have problems with both the aorta and the aortic root. This surgery is recommended for conditions such as:

Marfan’s syndrome

An inherited condition that affects the body’s connective tissues and can cause the aortic root to become enlarged.

Aortic dissection

A tear in the inner layer of the aorta that allows blood to leak between its layers, which can reduce blood flow to important organs.

Aortic aneurysms

A weak, bulging section in the aorta that can be dangerous, along with a damaged aortic valve that may leak.

purpose

What is the purpose of Bentall surgery?

One of the biggest concerns with an aneurysm is that it might start to tear from the inside. This can cause the layers of the blood vessel to split apart, which might lead to the artery bursting—a serious and life-threatening problem. To avoid this, surgeries like the Bentall procedure are often needed. In some cases, Bentall surgery may also be done as an emergency if the aneurysm has already burst.
