Flanged Bentall and Cabrol Procedures for Complex Aortic Root Diseases.

For complex aortic root lesions, the flanged Bentall procedure has more advantages than the traditional one. Here, we report two patients with complex root lesions treated with the flanged Bentall and Cabrol procedure: one was a 25-year-old male with interventricular septal dissection with Behçet's disease, and the other was a 4-year-old female with a very large ascending aortic aneurysm with a small annulus and Loeys-Dietz syndrome. Both patients recovered uneventfully and obtained good short-term results.
