Résumé
A 7-month-old boy with a complete atrioventricular septal defect presented with severe left atrioventricular valve regurgitation 4 months after complete repair. As the valve was unsuitable for the repair and the annulus was too small to accommodate a mechanical prosthesis, the modified mitral Ross operation was performed. The long-term outcome was uneventful for 12 years. The mitral Ross procedure is an old-described technique in which classically the pulmonary autograft is encased in a prosthetic conduit preventing any growth potential. On the contrary, the modified technique used in this case shows that the long-term function can be obtained. This procedure may be a valuable option when mitral valve replacement is necessary in infants.
